The Paperchase closes next week

But a mysterious new cafe will rise from its ashes

By Jessica Flower

Pizza Corner is about to get a little less literary.

Blowers Street's Paperchase Newsstand and Café will be closing its doors, out front and the garage ones up top, as of April 21. Management confirmed the new owner plans to keep the space a cafe and will reopen a few weeks later, but as a new business. Fingers crossed for discounted issues of Gentlewoman and Under the Radar, amirite?
