I think the graphic artist rendering is imaginative. Just giving passers by a hint of what’s to come. Leica is a very famous name

I asked my friend at Leica. She couldn’t comment but seemed to be strongly implying that it’s still happening.

walked by the store front this a.m. and there were construction workers building out the inside (the front door was open) – so seems like it is on track to open at some point.

Seems like a very large amount of space for such a niche player. Leicas are really expensive and their digital cameras don’t really stand up to high-end Canons and Nikons.

In related news, it seems that Penn Camera has been saved. They’re not part of Calumet. This is awesomeness.

Nice. A camera store full of cameras most of us can’t afford.
