The space would be occupied by John's, which will leave a new generation—People who never knew Mandaro—to weep at the passing of time and their relevance to the City.

Is this so?<br /><br />Owning the building is usually the life saver for such places. <br /><br />Unless---and it's a big one--the owner wants to retire, and is being offered astronomical buy out prices.
