Store Closing

After a six-decade Broadway run, Laytner’s Linen & Home will close its doors this fall.

Our "West Side Story" began in 1961, when Joseph and Helen Laytner bought a small candy store on Broadway and 81st Street. They sold newspapers and coffee to subway commuters and egg cremes and ice cream to neighborhood kids. 

In 1970, they opened a linen shop in the candy store space, offering high quality goods at low prices. Now, after six decades, Laytner’s Linen & Home has decided to close. We’ve been blessed to have lived, raised families, and prospered in one of the most storied neighborhoods in New York City. 

Thank you, dear neighbors, for 61 years of support.

-- The Laytner Family

 Our last day will be October 17th, 2022
