With Borders, @burger, Allure, Poshh, Sole Sisters, Squares, Champion House, and Organic Bliss all having closed in the past year, commerce on E. Liberty has lately been looking like a game of Whac-A-Mole.

Grand Traverse Pie Company just popped up in the location where @burger failed. It's at the campus end of the street, but at first glance, it doesn't seem much like a student-oriented business--what is an undergraduate living in a dorm going to do with a whole pie?
