It's next to impossible to get a typewriter fixed these days, or even to buy one. If that doesn't happen, my wife would like to see a fur cleaner there, or possibly a Starbucks.

Cooper Young has a unique vibe, and I feel specialty shops (versus chains) add to the uniqueness of the neighborhood.

I wonder if there's a way to get a tax break for doing such a good deed? I am not smart in these matters of taxes and such.

It would add more activity and art to the intersection. I think CY’s landlords should approach the Memphis College of Art with a low rate in order to attract a student gallery.
