Visions for Vacancies: Book Rack

What would you like to see at the Book Rack location?

Book Rack owner David Ek recently said that with online sales and popular e-readers ruling the book world, Book Rack isn't making much of a profit. Because of this, Ek will close Book Rack for good Saturday.

The store has been in the plaza on Manchester Boulevard since 1993 and has had two previous owners before Ek. The bookstore is currently having a sale in an attempt to sell all of its inventory before closing. It's located between Baskin-Robbins and Manchester Bagel.

What would you like to see in the Book Rack retail space after it closes? Tell us in the comments below.

A gift shop/hallmark type store! We don't have one in the area.

mexican restaurant (probably not enough space though)

Another option besides Chili's and Chipotle is actually a good idea. This may not be the location for it, but still something that needs to be considered for the Kingstowne area.

Another Manchester Lakes business going under ...again! With the closure of the Florist, Train Store, Carpet, Dollar Store, Tanning Salon, just to name a few, it's no wonder that any business can succeed with the consistent increases of high rent. If a company wants to make a profit & pay the rent unfortunately they need to look elsewhere. We're so tired of losing businesses at this location due to nothing more than greed on the part of the property owners.
