A Manhattan business has become just latest casualty causes by the pandemic.

Widgets Family Fun Center announced on its Facebook page that it, like many others, has been devastated by the long-term economic effects of COVID-19 and are unable to recover.

The business, which was locally owned, had no franchise backing and the owners say unfortunately any unused gift cards can no longer be used nor can they be refunded.

Last April, Widgets was one of 47 businesses to receive a loan from the Manhattan Business Emergency Assistance Loan Program established by the Chamber of Commerce. It received $5,000.

The business had been temporarily closed since late November
