Blooms Flowers and Plants Shop has relocated into John Lafford 131 Main Street building [location above was demolished this week] as part of the new project to create much more housing in a seven storey new build .. it will be a great addition to the downtown scene as housing has been a huge issue and shortages have forced many people to leave.  It was a shame that the building could not be relocated or saved as it was an attractive piece of local architecture.  The new location for the business does look pretty terrific too .. more here:
