Yet another downtown store closing ...
Washington Street boutique Vanecci Shoes has set the final date to shut its doors, joining a procession of retailers streaming out of downtown.
Vanecci, which has been open for two years at 100-C W. Washington St., will close Saturday. Everything in the shop, which carried shoes, clothing and accessories, is on sale - for cash only, according to the owners.
The boutique is open today, Thursday and Friday from 5 p.m. to 9 p.m. and open Saturday from noon to 5 p.m.
The closing doesn't come a surprise. Vanecci owner Demetrius Short has talked about plans to shut down for months. His decision follows on the heels of other downtown closings, including Thai It Up, men's shop Source 230, boutique LeVal's, clothing store Pod and Kristine's Boutique.
