This is cool. Now I can walk there. Perfect.

I'm glad they found a site they like better, but now I can't walk there (I can hike there in good weather). It's a big loss for the Western/Grand area...

I'm excited to hear about a bookstore that needs more space. Way to go, Common Good Books!!!

I've never visited the original location, and I'm looking forward to not visiting the new one.

Oh, for cryin' in the mud! We don't need him over here. He should stay in his own snooty neighborhood.

Anybody willing to run a non-chain bookstore in the time period is making a gift to the community. Thanks Garrison!

What will happen to the old location? It's a very cool space...
