Morganford Musings

The new vintage store (The Vintage Haberdashery) is having a grand opening on October 7th. The store is located at 3181 Morganford. Here is a picture of the inside:

In the background is store owner Joile Mackney, and in front of her is worker Charleen Vocca.

Here is a picture of the outside of the store, with "helper dogs" cuddles and squeak:

Joile promises to have a full line of Haloween costumes available in time for the holiday. Also, there are three one-bedroom apartments that will be ready for new inhabitants in a couple of months. The top unit will be gigantic and distinctly "lofty", according to one of the workers on-site.

Across the street, a restaurant is being built. Mr. Alexander, one of the owners, declined to have his picture taken, but let me know that the restaurant will be an affordable family oriented American-style place, and will likely feature a robust breakfast buffet. He also made it clear that the investors are African-American

Facing Connecticut street on the other side of the building, (across from the side of 7-11), Mr. Alexander let me know he (and his partners) will be opening a doughnut and pastry shop.
