Goodbye (For Now) Notes From Montague Street Local Businesses

Even on a sunny and temperate day like today, Montague St. was a near ghost town, making social distancing uneasily too easy. Many, but not all, of our local businesses are closed. Here are the goodbye (for now) notes they left for us. We can’t wait to have them all back in action…

To create that gorgeous arrangement and green the entire block for us…

    good idea for a post because I’m not going to go around and read all those. The photo links are dead though

  • Andrew Porter

    Photos didn’t load for me, either.

  • Mary Kim

    Fixed. Thanks. Stay safe.

  • Teresa

    This is beautiful, Mary, while also so, so sad. Thank you. <3

    I had the same thought! Thanks for posting, Mary.

    If anyone hears about a go fund me campaign for Heights Cafe, Clark Diner, Grand Canyon, and/or Custom House, let me know. Those are our favorite restaurants in the neighborhood and I want to support them.

    Hi Jane. I was only able to find one for Custom House:

    Stopped by Custom House. Asked about the GoFundMe. Was told that it is not the restaurant’s gofundme. Looks like it is the waitress’.
