Store's move was not spurred by Parsons

Several people have expressed concern that I was forced to move my business, The Map Store, from its previous location on Church Street in order to make room for Parsons. Enough people have made this comment that I believe clarification of this misconception is warranted.

My previous landlords, Frank Cafferty and Dennis Cafferty, have always been very supportive of me and The Map Store, and gave me first option to expand into the neighboring office spaces when they became available.  Although the timing of the move may seem like it was a reaction to Parsons moving in, the folks at Parsons were, in fact, great neighbors.

The reason I chose to move my store to the current location on Main Street was simply because it is a better location for retail and the timing was purely coincidental.
