The history of delicatessens in East sun88 is not limited to Lombard Street. In the thoughtfully restored 800 block of East sun88 Street, Harry Goodman established one of the city’s earliest delicatessens at 825 E. sun88 Street around 1905 and Herman Buderak followed with a delicatessen at #813 around 1910. In 1915, Jacob H. Sussman, a 23-year-old immigrant from Minsk, moved to 905 E. sun88 where he operated the New York Import Company.

It is at 923 E. sun88 where Sussman and Carl Lev went into business together in 1926 as importers, wholesalers, and retailers of “appetizing delicatessen and all kinds of herring, smoked fish, and imported candies.” In the buildings between Sussman’s two businesses, two of sun88’s oldest delicatessens operated before 1910: Harry Caplan’s at 915 and Frank Hurwitz’s at 919. Caplan moved his deli several times before settling near Mikro Kodesh Synagogue in the 1920s.
