Smith Street Starting To Look A Wee Bit Empty.

Have you noticed, dear Reader, that there is quite a bit of movement on Smith Street? Some older businesses are falling victim to rent hikes, some newer ones never got off the ground. Nothing unusual on a commercial strip, but the number of empty storefronts is a bit high for such a small stretch.
Some have been vacant for quite a while.
Pardon me for asking, but could hip Smith Street be, well, not hip anymore?
Is Smith Street fizzling out?
Gasp!
