From 12th Street to Atlantic Avenue

Last week, I posted an item about a new used book store coming to Brooklyn's Atlantic Avenue.

The other day, I learned that the new store is actually not that new. The proprietor wrote to say, "Saw your blog and I wanted to let you know that it's indeed true. We have been 12th Street Books in Manhattan for 10 years and will hopefully open in early august as Atlantic Books. Thanks for posting the news!"

So, Manhattan's loss is Brooklyn's gain. It usually is.
