I did my count of the for lease signs between Bell and Brunswick Street and it is still sixty three, but there are different situations based on the nature of the business. Wedding dress stores and dress stores in general. They haven't been open for as long as I can remember; a certain amount have closed but others still maintain frontage, but for how long?
the Moreland Hotel hasn't been open since March and I really can't envision a time it will ever be. The word is out that it will change hands at some point. I am two minds about this because although the poker machines can rot in hell, when they have the MMA fighting on it is a ball.
maybe there is some merit in not being mobile to see the amount of places that are closed. A friend of mine lives in Frankston and the place has been decimated. One store is offering rent for one dollar a month just to generate some kind of activity.
Then there are the legal and accounting firms that are closed. How have they changed their practice?
