Sly Fox Relocation Pushed Back Until 2010

In August, I mentioned that Sly Fox would be relocating across Rte. 113 this fall.  Well, those plans have been pushed back.
A delay in receiving all the necessary building permits has set back moving Sly Fox Phoenixville across Rt. 113 to its new location in the Maple Lawn Shopping Center until early next year.

“Even though appearances may be deceiving since there’s no construction going on, we are moving along with a lot of the work necessary to make the move,” says Pete Giannopoulos, “but at this point, given the coming holiday season, we wouldn’t try to get open this year in any case. Looking at things on the bright side, and that’s always my philosophy, we can use the extra time to be sure we get everything exactly right and to work out a lot of the details about the interior. Where do we put this? Where do we hang that? I’d like to have gotten into the new location as quickly as we could—believe me, we are as excited as our customers about taking this next big step—but you don’t always get want you want in this life.”

Barry Cassidy Addresses Downtown Rumors

Today's Phoenix ran an article written by Barry Cassidy in which he addressed the various rumors that have been circulating regarding the immediate futures of several local businesses. He paints a much rosier picture than some of the comments here would have you believe. From the article: --- On Monday someone came in and told me Molly Maguire's was closing. I knew that was not correct because they are expanding, not closing. Then about 20 minutes after than I heard from someone else that 101 was closing and the building was going to become a McDonalds. I knew that was not correct either. Marietu' Fanny from the crepe joint at Bridge and Gay called me and was upset that she heard someone at the business association meeting say she was closing... She went on to tell me that they were doing well... Then I heard probably the most outrageous rumor of all... Ellie's Choice is closing. Now think about this one, folks. Here, Ellie has been here for a long time, she was here
