From the BE Daily email:
“They have had our street torn up for five months and it’s been nothing but getting worse,” he said. “Our daily coffee business is doing OK, but the lunch business dropped off dramatically. The only thing that would help me is money from the city and I just don’t see that happening.”
Prichard wouldn’t give specific details at this time, but said another coffee shop should be opening around Jan. 2 in the building at 2354 Jefferson Ave. However, he said the meeting space used by businesses and community groups will not be available.
The street construction really has been bad around there. This is really sad to the see them go. The place has a great feel. Not sure how to interpret the part about the new coffee shop, though.
