Murray Hill Neighbors' Stories

Pasteur Pharmacy—Proud Supporters of Murray Hill since 1960

Pasteur Pharmacy was originally founded in 1960 and was located at 10 Park Avenue. I became the new owner in April 1987, and Murray Hill graciously welcomed me and my staff. As proud supporters of Murray Hill, we have participated in the block parties, providing health checks and blood pressure screening.

Since then we have seen our community grow, marriages, families, kids off to college, and even tragedies, such as 9/11. Now Corona Virus has been another one of those situations, but we stuck together through all these difficult times as a family.

Some people moved away or left town, however, they still relied on us, and have supported us every step of the way. During this time, we have mailed out and shipped prescriptions and all sorts of items needed during this crisis.

It has been a real pleasure being a part of this Murray Hill community and we acknowledge the strength everyone has shown throughout these times. With all we have been through together, it just proves we will come out stronger than ever. We would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone for keeping us a part of your local family and trusting us with your care. We look forward to the next step in moving forward and rebuilding our great City of New York.

Leon Tarasenko, Steve Shimmel, and the Pasteur Staff
