Park Slope's DII Gets Extended Lease At 9th Street Location

PARK SLOPE, BROOKLYN — Park Slopers will have at leas a few more months to snag Deals and Discounts at the beloved store, now known as DII.

"We are open!" reads a new banner outside of the store at 445 Fifth Ave.

"Our lease has been extended until Fall 2023," the banner explains to the store's neighborhood fans.

A popular Park Slope social media page erupted in cheer.

"YESSSSSSSSSSSS IM SO HAPPY," wrote one user.

"Socks for EVERYONE!! Hooray!" a shopper declared.

"Is it wrong that this just made my day," another person wondered.

Back in November, Morris Dweck, DII's owner, told Patch that because of an incoming new building, the longtime store of 20 years was on an unsuccessful hunt for a new spot in the neighborhood.

We've been looking for more than a year in Park Slope," Dweck told Patch in November, "but we have not found a single location that is large enough."

The shop has been in Park Slope for over 35 years, and at its current location since 2008.
