When chains open and close, it is only a loss of investment for them. When Manhattan Paint Fair closed, it hurt the family. Now, get out there and harass Virgo’s, to upgrade his business; trust me, if enough folks talk to him or complain, whichever is more effective, that stubborn old man (yeah, I can say that) will listen.

And yes, it is a foreshadowing of Harlem’s redevelopment; but Harlem didn’t develop good in the first place.
