No, it's long gone. (Had I continued in that location, it would have been under about 6-8 feet of water around 4 years ago.) About a year into it, I became disenchanted with the "partnership" aspect of the operation (read: If I didn't do it, it didn't get done), and took a management position with a regional wholesaler, where I met a customer's cocky young whipper-snapper kid named Gerwin. It was a learning experience, though, taking a space from four bare walls and floor to a full-fledged retail store.
