NEW KIDS ON THE BLOCK:

You may have noticed that people are still leaving donations on the steps of the former Dominican Sisters Thrift Store on Washington Street in Sag Harbor. Is it inattention or a subtle form of protest at the loss of the village’s only second-hand store? Probably a mixture of both. The Sag Harbor Chamber says that Henry Lehr, the high-end men’s clothing chain, is moving into the space from its current spot on Washington Street. The old bank across the street is rapidly becoming a new, high-tech Chase Bank. Greenport also recently said farewell to its Dominican Sisters store. Changing times.
