UPDATE: Monday's event served as a lovely send-off to Jonathan Chudnoff and crew. Councilmember Jim Graham (pictured below, with Pulp's Frank Muzzy) dropped by, as did many area business owners, to wish him and his store farewell. (Graham mentioned that he purchased a bowl that evening in order to fondly remember the store as he ate his morning cereal. Insert the joke of your choice here.)
Nothing has been finalized yet with regards to a new tenant at the space, although Chudnoff did mention that he was looking to be out of the space by March 31--dependent upon a new tenant being found for the space. I'll keep you informed if/when I learn more to pass along.

With that leading title, I must confess that I have no idea, but I hope to learn more at tomorrow evening's Mid-City mixer at Go mama go!.
The monthly mixer will be doubling as a farewell to the 14th street retailing institution, with food and wine donated by local restaurants. GMG owner Jonathan Chudnoff will of course be on hand, and I'll try to pick his brain over what might be headed our way. Rumor has it that Best Cellars was briefly interested in the location--until being turned away by leasing broker Blake Dickson. I've also heard that a Subway restaurant as well as a host of other retailers have expressed interest. Hope to find out more tomorrow...

YUK subway.
Maybe through comments posted on this blog we can get some sense of what might be preferred -- or NOT preferred. (I for one will confess to really hoping we don't get a fast-food chain in there...)

I was sad to see Best Cellars leave Dupont and think it would be a happy addition in Logan somewhere....but not in this space just doors down from another wine shop!

A diner. A REAL diner. Or close to a real diner. Please? Pretty please? I cannot afford to spend $50 on dinner when I come late and don't feel like cooking.
Hello. I can tell you that Subway is not nor have the brokers of Blake Dickson spoken to them. There was a potential butcher shop but financing became an issue. There are a few restaurant operators looking at the space along with soft good operators. Best Cellar was turned down because of Cork - the goal was not to delude from the current business in place on that block.
