General Store
General Store is the name of Mr. Jaffe's grocery store.
History
How long General Store has been open is unknown, but it has been open since Matt Bluestone was a boy.
The neighborhood the store is located in is a high crime area. However, Mr. Jaffe keeps the store open so the people in the neighborhood will have a place to buy groceries.
In February 1995, the store was the target of armed robbery, until the Manhattan Clan adopted the borough as their protectorate. [1] Later that October, the store was broken into by Fox while she wore the Eye of Odin. As a werefox, her accelerated metabolism required constant sustenance and, as a result, she tore up the inside of the store and broke the front window. The store suffered more damage in December after Dracon's men fired their particle beam weapons inside the store during the 23rd Precinct's sting operation to catch Tony Dracon extorting Mr. Jaffe for protection money.

Characteristics
The General Store may have an upper level and it is well stocked. It sells large bags of flour and potatoes that have been used as weapons. The first time when Elisa used a bag of flour against Fox in the latter’s werefox form and then the second time when Tony Dracon hit Elisa with a sack of potatoes in attempting to make a getaway.
