I thought the fashion at ROC was very out of place for this market... Several friends thought the clothes were more MTV's Jersey Shore than anything else. It was a cool store at first glance, but trying to find something in there was just a weird experience. I ended up buying a Georgia Tech t-shirt for $10 and never went back.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-579719431387122896.post-86083786943505722452014-12-05T13:41:44.087-05:002014-12-05T13:41:44.087-05:00It's a South Florida thing that doesn't tr...It's a South Florida thing that doesn't translate well to other markets.

The little city that could keeps chugging up that hill, but without a plan or destination, they won't ever hit the summit.

I have been saying for the last few years that the heart of Midtown needs a national chain pharmacy store to service the thousands of midtown workers. CVS near Peachtree and 6th is too far to walk for a quick refill pickup for the folks that work on or near 14th and Peachtree.

The interior looked like someone lost interest in the project - no POV, no excitement - not even the basics of retail design were employed.<br />Overall, better suited for Coral Gables and Omaha.<br />As one reader says, better a Walgreen's or CVS - someplace that would generate traffice and increase the corridor's viability for REAL retail and not someone's maligned apparel hobby.JLhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14078114059120752797noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-579719431387122896.post-66012179082932479852014-12-01T16:23:46.724-05:002014-12-01T16:23:46.724-05:00Dan hit the nail on the head.
