Tomorrow, online eyewear retailer Warby Parker will open the doors to its second NYC brick and mortar store at 819 Washington Street in the Meatpacking District. The location was a longtime pop up for the brand before being converted to a permanent store.

The new shop has all the hallmarks of the brand's Soho outpost: space-opening mirrors, library-style shelving that reaches to the ceiling, books to drive home the literary angle, and center tables to hoard contenting frames. The big difference? The Meatpacking store is a lot more wooden than the glossy, white flagship.
