This is Word Up, a local independent bookstore which is run by volunteers. The The store originated is 2011 as a pop up site in Washington Heights on Broadway and West 176th Street. The neighborhood wanted a place where people could share their talents, art, poetry, and singing. Word Up is the only bookstore in Washington Heights.
I was present when the store opened at its present site on Amsterdam Avenue and West 165 Street. Word is open Tuesdays-Sundays. for more information go to
