Pier One seeks Starbucks customers on Sunday
Wingporium gone in about six months
Over at Eglinton Ave. E. and Laird Drive the bankruptcy of Pier 1 in the US has caused the imminent closure of all stores in Canada. On Sunday, this man (left) was outside Starbucks kitty-corner from the Pier 1 in the RioCan Leaside Centre. Slightly west, Wingporium has closed after less than a year at 856 Eglinton E. Locals will recall that this is the site of the former Shoeless Joe’s, an apparent victim of disruption caused by the Crosstown LRT.
