Contstruction on Bathurst

Construction on Bathurst has disrupted life in the Annex and Seaton Village, but those most affected by the crews, machines and clouds of dust are the small businesses along Bathurst. To help keep these great little institutions in our neighbourhood, Madeleines's Cherry Pie and Ice Cream, Grapefruit Moon, Stevens, Olives, Java Mama, etc., please make a conscious effort to visit them during and after construction which will hopefully be completed at the beginning of August. With this in mind, I walked to Steven's and bought some items that I would normally purchase at Fiesta Farms. Why not call ahead and pick up a few pies from Madeliene's for your next weekend up north? I am sure the efforts will be appreciated and thriving small businesses are a great part of what make this neighbourhood unique. Calling ahead is key since many of these businesses have had to scale back on hours because of construction issues.
