Just wondering if anyone else living close to the West 4th corridor has any idea as to what's on the horizon for the former Book Warehouse space, now being occupied by Scoop. The shop had had signs up from the start, promising to be around for three weeks. Well folks, it's been well over that time and we're jonesing for a nice new shop to open its doors! What will it be? Another doggie deli? A nail salon? Great eatery? Yoga shop? How about an indy video rental shop, a la Videomatica? Always a curiousity of mine, trying to figure out the next new neighbour on the block.
I'd recently visited the Book Warehouse's new space on West Broadway, now occupying less than half of their old shop space, and they too were given no indication from the landlord as to what was coming there. Hopefully it won't prove to be an ongoing shlock shop kind of rent-a-space thing. This is prime real estate for the Kits 4th Ave. scene; should be something worthy!!
Speaking of worthy, not to wear my fellow Canucks fans down, but those Ducks really did perform this playoff series, and won a very well-deserved Cup last night! It was truly Teemu time - he's the oldest player in this past final series. Congrats to Scott Niedermayer who won the Conn Smythe MVP Award, and now may California wake up and smell the marvelous world of hockey. Finally.
