Long-time Beer Store at 609 Roehampton closed

Lady on hopeless mission

The Beer Store at 609 Roehampton Ave in the Metro grocery complex at Bayview has quietly closed. The long-time address for beer locked up a week ago but on Tuesday (August 19, 2014) people were seen coming to the store, surprised to find it gone. The forlorn state of the store might have been a tip-off for those who thought about it. Today it was sporting a sign with classically skewed letters that say end-of-the-line better than anything. There is a beer store in the Leaside Village on Laird Drive and another at Eglinton Ave. E. and Don Mills Road. Those on the west side of South Bayview can venture down Yonge Street to a store on Price Street, but it is frequently quite congested.
New Sign at Modella Ladies Wear 
The owners of Modella Ladies Wear at 1579 Bayview Ave. have installed a fresh new sign over their shop. It is a bright white and metal look which complements the street.
