Books Are Magic, famed Cobble Hill bookstore, to open Montague St. branch
Owner attracted by beautiful buildings… and croissants
Montague Street in Brooklyn Heights is turning into a literary destination: First, Brooklyn Poets, a new poetry salon and workshop space, opened last Saturday at 144 Montague. And now, the well-known Cobble Hill bookstore Books Are Magic has announced that it is planning to open a second store in October at 122 Montague St.
“Big news!” read the bookstore’s announcement on Twitter. “We’ve been dying to spill the beans about our second location, and we couldn’t hold it in anymore: Books Are Magic is coming to Montague Street in Brooklyn Heights this fall!”
The location was formerly occupied by Housing Works and Fishs Eddy.
