Peterborough Retail Changes

Hard to believe but we are now in our seventh year at the Marina.  After a few years, a cottager made a comment about giving up the leather jacket for something that was more durable and offered more warmth.  It was time he said, leave the city clothes behind, that leather jacket is going to get ruined.  Go to Marks Work Wearhouse and get a Carhartt work coat he said.  

His advice was taken with thanks.  That Carhartt has worked out well and is more industry appropriate than the leather bomber jacket.

The Mark's Work Wearhouse enjoys a solid business in Peterborough.  Marks in Peterborough is so successful that it has moved across the street into bigger digs, the largest in Canada apparently.  

So while one store has grown, another is gone.  Sadly, Sears was the anchor store for the Mall and has now closed. 

There was a longstanding rumor that Princess Auto was going to build beside Costco but apparently that possibility fell through.
