Mustafa Coskun, the founder, opened the first location in Gramercy in 1994. Since then, in addition to the Upper West Side store, the business expanded to open stores in Chelsea, Union Square, Brooklyn Heights and New Jersey.
Currently, Garden of Eden has remaining outposts at 7 East 14th Street and 275 Third Avenue. According to an employee at 2780 Broadway, these stores will remain open.
We’re not sure exactly when Garden of Eden opened its UWS location, but the earliest Yelp review is from 2006.
Upper West Siders expressed mixed feelings when we shared the news on Instagram.
