At the beginning of this year, Red Stick Reads owners James and Tere Hyfield were informed that they would have to leave their current location at 541 S. Eugene St. by the end of 2024. They have found a new space at the corner of Steele Blvd. and Government St. that is only about a two-minute drive away and is double the size.
The Hyfields will put that extra space to use by adding a cafe and expanding the store's selection of sidelines. The increased square footage will also allow the team to host in-store events without disrupting any browsing.
The owners plan to move by the end of the year and have the store open in the new space in January or February 2025.
