Every aspect of the New York Observer story that relates to House of Cards, i.e. that Chocolate Bar has signed a lease and will begin construction at 23 Eighth Ave. this summer, that the “longtime operator” of House of Cards is “planning to retire” and that Chocolate Bar will be functional at 23 Eighth Ave. in time for “the traditional peak chocolate season in December,” is absolutely and categorically false. As the owner of House of Cards, I have no intention of retiring; my present lease extends to 2010 and I am currently renewing the lease for many years to come. News of the store’s demise is premature and potentially damaging to my business. By the way, the photo of my storefront posted on EV Grieve shows a post-Christmas sale of three years ago.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5694390946037511355.post-22593157160757755232009-01-22T00:53:00.000-05:002009-01-22T00:53:00.000-05:00be tempted, be tempted!be tempted, be tempted!Jeremiah Mosshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11791516443125872364noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5694390946037511355.post-55994556445853775262009-01-21T23:41:00.000-05:002009-01-21T23:41:00.000-05:00Phew!
