What a fun spot. If visiting downtown, walk a bit further to check them out. We picked up some fun items and holiday decorations.

It was the night before Halloween and I needed a wig for my husband's costume, very easy to find, staff really helped and I was checked out quickly. Parked in front of the building. There were a lot of people there and was in a part of downtown that isn't that safe, but it all worked out perfectly.
