> Havemeyer street… USED to have a meat store, a fish store,
> a hardware store, a few clothing shops, a corset store…
I’m shocked to hear that the corset store is gone.
I prithee, is the Purveyor of Fine Buggy Whips still in operation?

We only have ourselves to blame
for being so fabulous.
I hear you guys, but why dump on the boutique owner? He/she didn’t raise the rents on previous tenants, or create the economy or neighborhood where boutiques thrive where mom and pops once ruled. They are just trying to make a living doing something they love, or selling something they’ve created.
Since banks, investors and lenders are so uber cautious, and frankly, mostly without a stitch of imagination or daring, the only kind of business plan that get even get any attention is a standard bricks and mortar boutique, because they can understand that. I would love to see different kinds of businesses open, but I’m not necessarily thinking about storefront businesses.
I do have a dog – a very cute West Highland Terrier. Unfortunately, he is like his master: doesn’t get along very well with the other dogs in the neighborhood.

To talk seriously a minute.
I’ll pick up on what Heather just said. I wish the owners of this boutique the best of luck, just as I wish the owners of Bread-Stuy godspeed (after they pay their taxes).
I tip my hat to any person who has the gumption to open their own place of business.
My lament above had more to do with the fact that these places seems to be the only kinds of businesses that can open nowadays in Brownstone Brooklyn.
Benson loves cats :o)
Puppies. I bet you like puppies, benson. Who doesn’t?
“Is there anything you do like, besides starting World War III with Iran?”
No, that’s about it.
