A very flattering NY Times article came out last week, flush with compliments for our community and its booming small-business scene.
Thriving businesses -- which mostly gravitate to a central hub on upper Main Street and just around the corner on North Broadway -- are in flux but seem to be demonstrating an upward growth cycle. Vacant spaces, for the most part, get snapped up fast.
Among the coming soon:
Nine Street New York is busy moving into the former Nu Toy Store space, with an opening date set for July 17. Behind the now-papered windows is a mother-daughter duo from Holland, offering up a mix of furnishing, textiles and vintage finds.
Here's more from their website:
WHO, WHY We're a mother-daughter duo who have long dreamed of opening a store filled with beautiful things sourced from around the world. Lidy amassed old ceramics while Esther collected vintage throws; knickknacks gathered in cupboards while pillows took over closets—until finally, it was time to breathe deep and take the leap. Although our tastes may differ, we share a love of mixing old with new, rough with refined, neutral with pops of color, and classic with a touch of humor—the key is finding just the right way to pull it all together.
WHAT, WHERE Nine Streets New York offers a curated selection of home furnishings, vintage finds, and special gifts that celebrate craftsmanship and provenance. We're located at 36½ Main Street in Tarrytown, along the Hudson River just north of New York City. Easy to get to and lovely to wander through, Tarrytown has a bustling downtown comprised of independent restaurants and retailers that's reminiscent of the Negen Straatjes, a vibrant neighborhood in the capital of our native Holland that we love so much, it inspired our name.

RiverMarket bar and restaurant, which will bring more life to the river, anticipates a July 8 opening. Read more on this from Eimbinder here.
Almost unbelievably, after a two-year wait, the former Tarrytown Gourmet reportedly has a new tenant, as long-time building owner Edward Coco told the NY Times.
Coco would not disclose any particulars on the $20,000-plus/per month, 20-year lease, beyond that it was taken by a regional chain, and something Tarrytowners would be happy with. Anyone want to place a wager on who this might be?
Finally, in the Stop and Shop complex at the edge of Elmsford, there's a nail spa opening next to Destination Wines & Liquor, as apparently, there's also more room for a nail spa.
