eStore of N.Y. Inc., dba PlasmaHouse.com, PlasmaWholesale.com, Dr. Plasma & Pro Video (DrPlasma.com), aka Empire Home Theater
481 Kings Highway
This storefront is the former home of Sky Net. They moved to NJ, so I stopped by to be sure. I found this sign. Phone number in sign belongs to PlasmaHouse.com. Checking found that this address appeared on all the eStore web sites. The EmpireHT.com has never worked since I started checking. In December 2007 this sign was gone. The only updating of the exterior since Sky Net moved out has been the blackening of Sky Net on the awning. Update: Checking the web sites I found that while the PlasmaWholesale.com site still uses this address, the PlasmaHouse.com and DrPlasma.com sites now have 303 Park Ave South #1081, Manhattan, with a note stating that domains are under new ownership as of 4-13-08. At this address I found a for rent sign. The current address in the whois for PlasmaHouse.com and DrPlasma.com domains is 6512 Bay Parkway, which is where they were until a 2004 fire. As you can see from the picture the ground level has a closed Nationwide Insurance. Could they be upstairs? There were no names on the intercoms to help answer this. In 2010 the ground floor became a Chinese bakery.
