I would have loved that space to become something 'useful'. People go on and on about how they don't want a Tim Hortons and this sort of thing opens up.
The old candy store location would make a perfect spot for Tim Hortons.
I guess this business is depending on the High Park and Bloor West Village Dog Owners. I was pretty surprised when I saw another Doggie DayCare as well.
It looks like Groom Pet & Sports at Bloor & Kennedy is leaving (building for sale, owners retiring), so there might actually be a market in the west end for a regular pet store. There's a good new pet supply place at Annette & Quebec, but they don't stock tropical fish or small animals. At least, not yet.

We've got five coffee shops on a strip three blocks long. Do we need a Tim Hortons?
ReplyDeleteTim Horton’s is a metaphor for something more viable.

ReplyDeleteAqua Tropics & Scales and Tails have that covered David (outside of cats and dogs) at Keele & Dundas
ReplyDeleteI'll try to remember that it's just a metaphor the next time I order a double-double.
ReplyDeletewow you guys are grumpy :)
ReplyDeleteI hope this doesn't reignite the debate about a leash free zone in Baird Park.
ReplyDeleteDogs are popular in general. There should be plenty in the Junction area.
