RIP, Victory Rug Cleaning..

Yep, it’s true. Victory Rug has filed for bankruptcy and their big ol’ building on Cherry Street will be auctioned off later this month. I’ve walked by this building so many times, I never thought this business would soon be gone forever. 

Looking forward, I’m curious what you folks would like to see take its place? Art spaces? A non-profit? Another small business?
