We visited one of New York City's first marijuana dispensaries — take a look inside
Columbia Care
New Yorkers will soon have an easier time getting their hands on legal marijuana, thanks to several new policies announced this week.
Under the new regulations, patients too ill to travel can have their cannabis delivered, and nurse practitioners may now certify patients for access to the drug. The state may also double the number of companies allowed to operate dispensaries, from five to 10.
Earlier this year, we toured one of the first medical marijuana dispensaries to open doors in New York. It's run by Columbia Care, a a medical marijuana company with locations in California, Nevada, and Massachusetts, and designed by the retail display group RPG.
Located just east of Union Square, the new Manhattan office is sleekly modern — here's a look.
