After 33 years in Asheville, Kostas’ Menswear on Battery Park Avenue has announced that it will be liquidating its merchandise. Sales at the store have already started, I think.

If memory serves, the Kostas property was purchased awhile back and slated for development into condos or something. Maybe it was going to be part of the Tony Fraga Haywood Park redevelopment project. Not sure.

But anyway, if you need to fancy duds, or some store fixtures, you better get downtown.

My oh my, where will the fur protesters go now?
