VIDEO: What JP Businesses Do You Miss Most?
At least seven JP businesses closed in 2011. Many residents will miss Bon Savor and many more still miss Jamaicaway Books, which closed last year. In our unscientific sample, no one said they missed Hi-Lo Foods.
Every year brings business closings and openings in our dynamic neighborhood. Correspondent Meghan Foley asked JP residents which businesses that closed this year they'll miss the most.
In this admittedly small sample, Bon Savor kept coming up. Perhaps it was because the interviews were done shortly after the French-South American bistro shut down for good.
Interestingly, no one mentioned the closing of Hi Lo Foods, which sparked Jamaica Plain's story of the year — Hi Lo's closing and the arrival of Whole Foods.
