The problem is there is really nowhere to go for us. And, unfortunately, sometimes when we do go there, we get mugged. <BR/>I think it will take some growth in the neighborhood (new apartments/houses) and perhaps a bit of (gasp) gentrification before more businesses are sustainable in the area and can draw students in.<BR/>It is a shame, I'm really quite jealous of the schools that have shops, restaurants, etc right near campus.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17024678.post-42771897111370394162007-09-25T22:17:00.000-04:002007-09-25T22:17:00.000-04:00Sad, but maybe a chance for rebirth.

Perhaps stores need to close to provide a clean slate for the type of businesses people with spending power have been begging for (quality sit down restaurants, 'hip' lounges, and others that would make it a destination and not just a place to drive through when you want some wings, or crappy hardware service). 12th street needs a massive takover. The success of Yes! Organic should tell us something. It is only then when more foot traffic has been generated that a store like "Dwellings" could survive.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17024678.post-57666320922465082572007-09-20T12:45:00.000-04:002007-09-20T12:45:00.000-04:00that is sad newsthat is sad newsSean Hennesseyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16516980915464663011noreply@blogger.com
