For immediate release

December 28, 2013

 

Latitudes Fair Trade Store and Great Harvest Bread Co., two adjacent retail shops in Old Town Warrenton, Virginia are constructing a large walk-through opening in the wall that separates their stores.  Construction will begin January 2, 2014 and last two to three days. The stores are located at 104 and 108 Main St., respectively. The work has been approved by the Town and will be performed by Golden Rule Builders, Inc. of Catlett, Virginia.

 

A hidden door will be installed that can be closed in order to separate the two businesses during hours when one is open and the other is closed or during special events.

 

Both businesses are part of the Fifth Street Coalition, an informal group of shopkeepers with retail stores at the intersection of Main and Fifth in Old Town. The group seeks to improve business for their stores and for Old Town by advertising cooperatively, hosting special events, and providing support and encouragement for each other.
