Melody Market in Five Points Is Closing After One Year in Business

After just a year in business, the Five Points bodega-like grocerat 2590 North Washington Street will be closing its doors by the end of January. Owner LaSheita Sayer says issues with her building and closures of nearby businesses has led to exorbitant expenses and not enough foot traffic for the market to stay in business.

"People would come in so grateful they didn't have to go to Safeway," she notes."We have all these little unique items requested by the community. That's the value I can bring as a neighborhood market." The store has also faced a number of challenges with the physical space. In August, a storefront window was broken, and there have been a half-dozen leaks from the ceiling. The broken window, which Sayer says took four months to repair, led to increased utilities bills. "Do you know how many candy bars I have to sell to make up $3,000 in additional utility expenses?" she asks.

Sayer says she did send monthly checks for the original amount of the lease, but that Hope Communities returned them."I really needed my landlord to be more supportive," she says. "I wasn't expecting to make loads of money, but we could never break even."
