Earlier today we posted a story of Jersey Mike blogging on the closing of the bar Tara Station, as I made my back to the office I noticed the yellow poster boards announcing the liquidation of inventory at the Michael Boyd clothing store located at 5 North Third Street in Harrisburg. Owner Samuel Boyd stated he is relocating to a larger space across the river,Boyd could not give the exact location due to contractual requirements.And how does the loss of two business bode on the downtown district?, well lets look at a quote from a Modeweekly 2001 report >>>>> "Shops on Third">>>>> ?Retail is extremely important as it relates to center city Harrisburg,? said Fred Clark, Executive Director of the Harrisburg Downtown Improvement District Authority. With a new influx of retail, ?we will then make a full circle with shops, bars, restaurants, night clubs. We will have a complete circle to offer everyone.?
