Having failed to work out a last-minute deal with its landlord, the historic Chinatown Fair arcade in New York City closed its doors on Sunday night. Here are some images of its last hours.

Itās unclear whether the business will be moving, as we were told was an option last week, or is simply shutting down. What is clear, though, is that the arcadeās presence on Mott Street is now no more, the same building having played host to arcade gaming for over 30 years closing its doors just after midnight on Sunday night..
Even if Chinatown Fair is able to relocate, itāll be missing that history. Not every arcade sits in the one place so long, and certainly not every arcade gets a starring role in an Olā Dirty Bastard video clip.
