The Northshire Bookstore, Saratoga Springs, N.Y., has been closed temporarily since July 4 due to sustained, significant water damage from a leak originating in one of the apartments above the store.
"We are working expeditiously to reopen as soon as possible and thank our incredible customers for their patience and support," COO Scott Austin told the Albany Times Union at the time.
In a recent e-mail newsletter update, the Northshire wrote: "The store remains closed as we undertake remediation and repairs. Unfortunately, we do not yet have any additional info on the timeline for reopening, but we are hard at work and will continue to keep you updated."
Scheduled author events will take place outside of the Saratoga Springs store throughout July. The Northshire's Manchester Center, Vt., location and the company's website remain open.
"Almost immediately after we announced the closure, there was a wildly generous community response, with many customers, other businesses, and organizations reaching out to with offers of help," the Northshire noted in its e-mail. "We are overwhelmed with gratitude for the kindness and support of our community.... We cannot wait to welcome you back to our Saratoga store. We appreciate your kind words and your continued support."
