Highland Laundromat--Closed

[fangirl715.livejournal.com]

Apparently the Highland Laundromat near Davis Sq. closed some time within the past week or so--it looks as if the washers & dryers have been taken out, floors being ripped up, etc. One of the ladies at the antique store next door said that it had been bought by someone who owns 5 other laundromats in the area (sorry, no idea which ones), and that he would be renovating this one and reopening it at some point in the future; she had no idea of when that would be, however. Does anyone have any better idea of what's going on over there?

(Since Royal White closed a few years ago, I suppose this means that those of us who used this laundromat will have to go to the one in Ball Sq. or Gold Star further down Highland Ave. near the hospital; either way, I'm not looking forward to it. Not to mention that I'll miss the nice older Chinese couple who worked there... *sigh*)
