TopShop or TopSlop?
The booze hags at the soon-to-open TopShop store in SoHo were denied the right to sell liquor, in the store, at last night’s community board meting. According to a correspondent who attended the meeting, the reason behind the decision is an existing restriction from selling liquor on the first floor of buildings in that zone. Hmm, last time I heard, TopShop is supposed to be multiple stories! Although TopShop might have made more money, selling booze and clothes to the downtown drunkards, at least they won’t have to worry about customers vomiting on clothing racks, engaging in random hookups in the dressing room or being roofied while browsing through the men’s section.
Thanks NY Mag!
