Renee Rettig, former manager of the Book Shop in Hayward, Calif., which closed last February, is eyeing a September opening for her new store Books on B, at 1014 B St. But it was very difficult to move sections." Water Street had a nice, maze-like feel to it.
You can actually move the shelves if you want to. It's much brighter, and I think there's a better continuity throughout the store. You'll see there are a lot more faceouts. Manager Richard Simpson said that the new retail space may be slightly smaller than the old space, "but we're using it more efficiently. The building cost $10 million to construct, according to the Berkshire Eagle. Operated by Follett, the store is replacing Water Street Books. Upstairs is a conference room as well as school supplies, clothing, gifts and course materials. The first floor is also the site of the Uptown Tunnel Coffee café, run by Tunnel City Coffee. Trade books are on the first floor "because it's a community bookstore as well as a college bookstore," said construction manager Michael Wood. The three-story building has some 14,200 square feet of space, about a third of which will be rented out as office space. But building a fantastical Lego city at the community center provides Lolly with an escape-and an unexpected bridge back to the world.ĭavid Barclay Moore paints a powerful portrait of a boy teetering on the edge-of adolescence, of grief, of violence-and shows how Lolly's inventive spirit helps him build a life with firm foundations and open doors.The Williams Bookstore in downtown Williamstown, Mass., which aims to serve both Williams College students and the larger community, opened this past weekend, iberkshires reported. When Lolly and his friend are beaten up and robbed, joining a crew almost seems like the safe choice. His path isn't clear-and the pressure to join a "crew," as his brother did, is always there. Now, faced with a pile of building blocks and no instructions, Lolly must find his own way forward. Lolly's always loved Legos, and he prides himself on following the kit instructions exactly. Then Lolly's mother's girlfriend brings him a gift that will change everything: two enormous bags filled with Legos. They're still reeling from his older brother's death in a gang-related shooting just a few months earlier. It's Christmas Eve in Harlem, but twelve-year-old Lolly Rachpaul and his mom aren't celebrating.
