Mixed messages on Lincoln Avenue

The “flatiron” retail space at Lincoln and Racine — for decades the location of the Time Well — has been vacant for almost a year now, since the used furniture emporium gave up the ship. But you probably wouldn’t figure that out if you just glanced at the storefront while driving by.The place is clearly empty, with the exception of a few potted plants, a desk, and a neon sign that tauntingly, mockingly — perversely says “OPEN.” It’s even on at night.
Maybe the owners [who have so attractively made their phone info available to interested prospects] intend this as an ironic commentary on the state of the business. More likely, the sign is an item the Time Well left behind and it’s the only thing left in the place that’s for sale.
