This is the former Universal Gear space which closed at the end of August.
What is Madewell? For one thing, we’re jeans makers. But we also focus
on all the things you wear with denim: timeless
leather jackets, great boots, slouchy tees and have—forever totes.

“This afternoon [Monday], around 12pm, my partner was sitting in his car writing an email on his phone in front of Streets Market on 14th when a man approached the car and knocked on the window. He lowered the window a couple inches, and the man demanded that he hand over everything on him. Luckily a car turned up the street at that moment, distracting the would-be robber, and he was able to drive away and call the police. Police were on the scene in 20 minutes, and were able to apprehend the suspect, as he had already robbed someone right before. Thanks to the police, this guy is off the streets, at least for now.”
