Carmichael's Kids bookstore, Louisville, Ky., has closed indefinitely for the second time this year because of water damage. On Wednesday, the store posted on social media. "This is the worst case of déjà vu. We are closed due to flooding. We’ll be back! We just don’t know when exactly. We’ll sure sure to share here when our doors are back open. In the meantime, you can visit the Carmichael's Bookstore on Frankfort Avenue for kid book needs. We hope to see you soon!" In an update later, the store added: "We’ve sustained water damage from an issue with the roof and we will make a decision about a reopening date after we fully assess damages and necessary repairs."
Carmichael's Kids had to close in January due to water damage caused by a broken main sewer line. The store reopened about a month later.
Carmichael's was founded in Louisville in 1978, and Carmichael's Kids opened in the Highlands in 2014.
