I was watching a Seinfeld re-run, and Elaine--searching desperately for her favorite form of birth control, which evidently had been taken off the market--ends up at, lo and behold, Pasteur Pharmacy (the 63rd & Lex location)! The episode shows the store's exterior . . .

nearest subway: Lexington Avenue -63rd Street (F)
Elaine finds the final case of the Today Sponges during her “25 block radius hard target search”…taking three…no, ten…no, twenty…no, twenty five…yeah, just give me the whole case.
The Sponge (season 7, episode 9) written by Peter Mehlman, directed by Andy Ackerman
original airdate: December 7, 1995
New scene - a musical montage of Elaine's "hard-target search" - visiting stores and pharmacies all over town and not finding a sponge anywhere. She ends up at the Pasteur Pharmacy.
PHARMACIST: Can I help you?
ELAINE (with little hope): Yeah, do you have any Today sponges? I know they're off the market, but...
