By my count, here's the list of retail casualties in the Grand Shops at the Kahler and Marriott since new ownership and management arrived in January:
Hallmark
Dreamlodge (and Wine Shop)
Tableside Manor
MVS Convenience

Silhouette
Merle Norman Cosmetics (the smaller part of Renee Carlson’s store)
The Crate (planning to close within a few months)
In court, fighting eviction:
Revelation/Les Wigs Renee/Merle Norman
Go Rochester Direct
And at least three other stores are on the bubble, either to be moved or who knows.

New businesses are planned, including a flower shop, and a new hotel shop (Peacocks) fills the space where the wine shop was.
