The news of Abercrombie & Fitch has been one of the biggest commenting events on our social media platforms, and one of the highest views on the blog. However, many of you have commented about chain stores taking over and that you would rather shop small. Here’s some of the favorite small businesses on Southport Avenue in Chicago. Which one is your favorite(s)?

M2 Boutique closing end of October
In a Instagram post, M2 says its farewell, says a “retail tobacco shop” is coming to their space.
When will M2 Boutique be leaving Southport? And more national retailers coming
New national retailers are coming to the former DavidsTEA, Gearhead spaces as well
M2 has lost their lease, and will vacate their current space “30 days after “new” tenant signs.”
And even more national retailers are coming to Southport including the former DavidsTEA location and Uncle Dan’s/Gearhead space – with “large, complicated build-outs.”
See the listing for M2 here from Loopnet.
M2 Boutique has lost their lease
Sad news for all M2 Boutique fans. The store has lost their lease and is closing on the Southport Corridor. M2 has been a staple of Southport for years, and will very much be missed.

M2 consolidating

After 13 WONDERFUL years in this amazing corner space, it is time to change with the changes. I am consolidating and moving into the space next door, so I can focus on more creative, detail oriented, exciting stuff I have been wanting to do. So, I need to sell off as much as we can to actually FIT into the smaller space! Yes, there will be some changes, some the same, but this M2 staff plans to always be your GO TO SHOP! (at M2 Boutique)
