Hello, neighbors, I'm sorry to see two businesses in the neighborhood have folded.
Two Sisters Grille seems to have suddenly vanished. There's no sign posted, and their number is disconnected. Does anybody know what happened? Kathleen and I had Sunday brunch there several times, and business seemed good when we were there. The stationery store Signatures, by the Village Lofts, has also closed. I noticed a sign for a clearance sale, and then they were gone. It was a nice little shop, and I did buy cards there a few times. However, I wondered if stationery alone could sustain a business. Some of you may remember the Shops at Homewood, run by Marty Brock. She had a combination store that had garden supplies, gifts, as well as stationery. That looked viable to me. Marty always said that the stationery sold pretty well. It's too bad the fiasco over the Olmstead means that she'll probably never get her business back. (When the Olmstead was built, she was supposed to get affordable store rental space.) --Emil _______________________________________________ Chat mailing list Chat@charlesvillage.info http://charlesvillage.info/mailman/listinfo/chat_charlesvillage.info archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/chat@charlesvillage.info/
