Where did Frank's relocate to?<br /><br />I understand the frustration Mr. Gestone must feel, but I felt it a little disingenuous (or a sloppy use of tenses) to present Frank's as still occupying 165 Grafton St.Sean Daceyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01899999467326520953noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1556759765915722228.post-42076708315791964062010-03-16T10:12:45.252-04:002010-03-16T10:12:45.252-04:00Hey Sean, I've actually been a customer at Fra...Hey Sean, I've actually been a customer at Franks for a long time and I think I can give some insight. Frank's Flower Shop opened up at that location in 1968 or 69 somewhere around there -about 40 years ago. It did a prosperous business until it closed at that location and relocated in 2008. The building was leased to another type of business in late 2008 and operated there until late 2009. The building is for lease now. The owner of the business Frank's Flower Shop is also the owner of the building.<br /><br />All sorts of property owners and business owners will be affected in different ways. I think the quote clearly expresses the property owners concerns for what is obviously an unclear future for a building into which he has invested his life. And I think the sentiment - simple concern over investments - is shared by many in the neighborhood.Jules Millerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12737503560255590613noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1556759765915722228.post-3475359262948269782010-03-15T21:27:26.525-04:002010-03-15T21:27:26.525-04:00Sorry- I assumed your interest in the library stem...Sorry- I assumed your interest in the library stemmed from your involvement with it. <br />Was your husband shushed by a librarian one too many times?Sean Daceyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01899999467326520953noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1556759765915722228.post-44821408318113515812010-03-15T18:59:15.603-04:002010-03-15T18:59:15.603-04:00I'm not a librarian.
