I believe this store has undergone two major renovations. <BR/><BR/>The first happened at the end of the 1990's--the wall that housed the greeting cards (and served as a side of the pharmacy) was removed which opened up the entire area by the registers (the pharmacy was moved to its present location next to the floral dept). At this time, HT also began stripping away some of the unique aspects of this location--the in-house made doughnuts, the gourmet ready-to-eat gourmet meal section (they even housed a culinary chef for this operation)--a lot of the fresh prepared foods were replaced with prepackaged items (or Krispy Kreme in the case of the doughnuts).<BR/><BR/>With the threat of EarthFare opening across the street, HT did an about-face a few years ago and began frantically adding back most of the original custom-made and gourmet foods (they even started making the doughnuts in-house again!) that they had stripped away previously.<BR/><BR/>At about the same time (or right after), they also renovated the Cotswold location and announced that this was the second flagship location of the chain.Pat R.https://www.blogger.com/profile/03904273933358967662noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22939566.post-69241902932062246192008-12-24T15:39:00.000-05:002008-12-24T15:39:00.000-05:00Nice post!
