Cliff's Variety, the beloved hardware store , known for its decorative seasonal window displays, including their current horrific Halloween themed décor, posted on social media late Friday morning about what happened. Terry Asten Bennett, the owner of the business, spoke to KTVU over the phone Friday afternoon. She actually had to keep us on hold for a bit because one of her employees was injured and sent to the ER.
She has been supportive of fellow Castro businesses and has had to send others information on broken window grants in the past. The windows at Cliff's Variety will be boarded up, likely until next Thursday their social media post read. "That is as fast as they can get us the new glass. And it would mean a lot to all of us if you could share some good vibes and love around the neighborhood."She says crimes of this nature have seen ebbs and flows in the neighborhood.
