The Brooklyn Paper reports that Margaret Palca Bakes on Court Street will shut down after a year and a half of business. Businesses are closing down left and right due to the current state of the economy, but Palca chose to blame what she calls the “has-been” quality of Court Street:
“I had such a wrong impression [about Court Street],” said Palca. “It’s just such a ‘has-been’ kind of street. I hoped it would be more popular and more busy, but it just hasn’t been.”
In the words of Jennifer Aniston, that is very uncool. I’ve stepped into Margaret Palca Bakes a ton of times – the store never had anything appealing and the salad bar was quite meager. Perhaps that is what Palca should blame for the closing down of her business, and stop pointing fingers at our beloved Court Street.
