J's is as interesting a retail store as I've ever walked into. I've only lived downtown a year and had never gone into it until a couple of months ago. We certainly won't be able to get some of those things for now, if they move out. A good hardware store would be a great addition that would cover some of the items but, of course, that will have to wait unit we get an adequate supply of beauty schools up and running. Still, J's did seem like a business that wasn't likely to stick around as downtown changes. I wonder just what the market for downtown wigs has been in recent years. I wrote a piece on it in my blog this summer and linked a YouTube video that shows the store (in a humorous light connected with the P-card scandal).
