Austin Street's Stoa Jewelry Shuts Its Doors

An Austin Street-based jewelry store has closed its doors after more than four decades on the commercial strip.

Stoa Jewelry, located at 71-60 Austin St., recently went out of business, but it was unclear why the shop's owners decided to close.

A note in the store's window read, "After 45 years, we've sadly decided to conclude our operation Stoa. That which began as a business venture evolved into a large, beautiful communal family. For that, we are grateful."
