Upper East Side’s First Legal Weed Dispensary to Open in New Year

It’s happening: the Upper East Side’s first legal recreational cannabis dispensary will open its doors on Jan. 4. The Herbal Care, located at 1412 Lexington Ave. near 92nd Street, is going to be the first legal dispensary for recreational marijuana in the neighborhood, and the only one between 16th Street and Harlem in New York City so far. A few doors down, an illegal weed shop, California Finest CBD Depot at 1416 Lexington Ave. has been “permanently closed” according to Google Street maps.
