City Fun is moving — and growing.
The indie retailer opens today at noon in a larger space, one storefront to the south in the same building at 45 First Ave., between Second Street and Third Street.
The new location features two levels: merch on the ground floor and a basement space set aside for events, community collabs and possibly even band performances down the line.
All your favorites from the original store will be back — officially licensed band tees, patches, socks, and more. However, the lineup is expanding to include accessories, backpacks, a western-inspired fashion line, and eventually self-published books and poetry from local artists.
We dropped by for a peek while the team was stocking the shelves...
... and talked with store manager Lilly Axe...
And we took a last look at the old shop next door...
