William Noble Consolidating Its Village Space
The folks at Highland Park Village have announced that Noble Boutique will be giving up its street-level storefront and consolidating with its parent company, William Noble Rare Jewels, on the third floor.
Village owners Stephen Summers and Ray Washburne approached William Noble — the man, not the business — about the move last year.
“We are in the very fortunate position to have high demand for our retail space,” Summers said in a press release, “and we believe this is a win-win for both sides.”
Noble said the Noble Boutique concept will continue online. He also said he doesn’t plan on leaving Highland Park Village anytime soon.
“We have been here for 30 years, and God willing we will be here for another 30 years,” Noble said.
I heard Washburn is consolidating/removing more retailers from the Village.
