I am shocked, but not surprised. The building really is a mess and should have been pulled down years ago. It would be fantastic if some generous property owner in the area would lease a suitable building to the Austin for a reasonable rent. I shudder to think what they are going to do with all their stock - they have a HUGE lot of stuff, you wouldn't believe it unless you go there.
Oh no! that is so sad, I only ''discovered'' this great shop a few weeks ago thanks to Gina, will be sorry to see it has to shut, unfortunately not the first this year, the Rotary at Forest Hills has gone too :(
