Solstice closing at Westfield Montgomery Mall, Vitamin World packs up (Photos)

Another successful Christmas shopping season is in the books at Westfield Montgomery Mall in Bethesda, and two retailers won't be participating in the next one. Solstice, a sunglasses boutique, is closing. They are currently holding a liquidation sale. Meanwhile, the expected closure of Vitamin World was underway yesterday at the mall, as workers packed up the remaining contents of the store. Moribund Montgomery County has lost over 2000 retail jobs since 2000, according to the Maryland Association of Retailers.

It was? Did you see "the books"?

"...and two retailers won't be participating in the next one."

Ooops... Solstice makes the 31st closure in 2017?

Meanwhile, the "Suburban News Network's" Moribund Sam Eig Blog hasn't had a local story published in over two months. The moribundity overwhelms.

I checked. There is no "Maryland Association of Retailers" at 171 Commerce Street in Annapolis.

Perhaps you're thinking of the Maryland Association of Realtors, at 200 Harry S. Truman Parkway in Annapolis?

Those numbers come directly from the US Census Bureau, brochacho.
