McKinnon's will be closing

I just came home from McKinnon's.  I spoke with the guy in the Deli counter.  They will be sadly closing somewhere early next year.  Jan 2 earliest, but maybe into Feb or March.  The owner is 75 years old, no energy to restart.  They're not selling it, and the rent is too expensive for someone else to pick it up.

So sad.

edit, Dec 3: There's apparently a sign in the store's window saying they are not closing. There's another post in this davis square community discussing that.

As a moderator, I don't have the power to edit anyone else's post, but I did make a new post.

(Although I do have the power to delete posts, I don't want to do so in this case, as it would wipe out useful discussion. Also, Karyn could turn out to be correct after all.)

I'm dropping her an email. I'm sure her post is accurate, just no longer up to date. ;-)
