My Passion

Has anyone seen the new addition to the 6th Ave retail strip in South Slope? It's called "My Passion by Terry MacMillan" (sp?). It looks... interesting. Seems a strange time to open a new boutique since nearly all of them on 7th Ave have closed up shop, Lily being the latest one to throw in the towel.

    Instead of opening a boutique, why not a small hardware store? Spaces are small, but I would love to not have to walk all the way to Tarzania for everything.

    And what's the deal with that empty store front (looks like two maybe) on the North-East corner of 7th Avenue and 14th? It's been empty for at least a year and a half.

    You mean in that strange old/new building? Something m ust be seriously up with the spaces (which look fine from the windows) or the rents... i can't imagine why they wouldn't have rented yet. it's a prime location. Just, god help us, no more nail salons.

    "My Passion" makes me think that the place is going to be filled with booze and porn or something. Not digging the name.

    Neither does the sign that advertises "Woman clothes"

    The impression i get from the signage is that the eponymous Terry is selling clothes that she designs and sews herself

    As a project runway fan i am intrigued

    And walking by yesterday I saw a pink camo print dress that was really cool looking -- tho nothing i could pull off
    :D

    I've got nothing against the store or designer... but anyone who knows my pet peeves knows that #1 is bad store naming and #2 is bad store signage.

    Well this is certainly an example of both
    The name makes me think of Mel Gibson, and not in a good way
    And as a recovering english teacher i morn the lost art of the apostrophe

    IS there a good way to think about Mel Gibson? I don't think so.

    There used to be. Somewhere immediately following the bare ass scene in Lethal Weapon I, it all went south.

    Weird - what about the bare ass scene in Bird on a Wire? Love that movie.

    Tarzania's hours stink.
