Designing flowers has been Sarit Rueda’s dream since childhood, so when the opportunity arose she took it. After years working in the industry, she opened Alcatraz Flower Shop earlier this month as the actualization of her dream. The shop advertises itself as providing “flowers for all occasions, weddings, and events”, and even while events and weddings have taken a back seat, Alcatraz has been busy out of the gate brightening neighborhood apartments with fresh flowers. The store has bouquets, air plants, succulents, and various arrangements.

Sarit comes in with 20 years of experience working with flower businesses—most recently at Belle Fleur New York in Flatiron. However, this is Sarit’s first time owning her own business, so she went looking for a cozy space on a merchant friendly block to open shop. Alcatraz found exactly that in her space at 648 Grand Street, nestled among a few community active businesses like The Sandwich Shop and Empire Lock. She looks forward to joining this community and remaining for the foreseeable future.
