Napoleon Bakery

Am I the only person who's noticed a "For Sale" outside of this landmark bakery?

Nope, it's been there for about six months.

So, what gives? Are they looking to fold, re-locate, or sell their business to another baker?

They've already folded. Sorry, didn't mean to be short. There was some coverage in The Star in August, I think. I was looking for this thread on KCRag, too but couldn't find it before.

It sounds like the owners had some health problems, needed to close up shop, and have been unable to sell.

Aaron's right - I was hoping someone would step-up and keep it going in reasonably similar fashion but, alas, no one has. I've not heard an update but it was for health reasons and not likely to be reversed. Our loss.
