That's awesome news. Ideal location, maybe not ideal, but it brings a cooler vibe to West Camelback. You've got a park & ride right there, a very cool neighborhood to the north and potential for a coffee shop or a Wildflower to join forces with like in Tempe. On the issue of bookstores, traditional chains like Barnes and Noble and Borders are a dying breed but local bookstores are actually on the rise because they are more than just places to get books. They are gathering places and are heavy on bringing authors in. I'm very excited. Thanks for the news Hoover!
