Got it!
Either that time machine I stepped into last week actually worked or the
universe is playing some sort of trick: a bookstore owner is actually planning
to open a new book store on the Upper West Side.
Book Culture plans to open a new store on Columbus Avenue between 81st and
82nd streets in the former home of antique store Olde Good Things. The good
news comes from Linda Alexander of the Columbus Avenue Business Improvement
District and other sources who know the plans. DNAinfo reported

last week that the lease went for $35,000 a month, according to brokers at
Walker Malloy.
Book Culture already has two locations in Morningside Heights, on 112th and
114th streets. The store sells new and used books, and buys used books. It’s an
independent shop where employees write their recommendations on cards next to
their favorite books.
