Closing: Urban Nest

The French country inspired boutique at 3927 24th Street is closing up shop and moving. (Even if you don't shop there, you'll remember it as the store with the twittering birds sounds as you walk by.) A woman behind the register confirmed the store is "probably" moving to Palo Alto - and the retailer needs to be out of the building by the end of the month. Much of the inventory is already gone, and what's left (lots of Christmas stuff) is selling at a 20-40% discount. Unclear what precipitated the move but it feels sudden - and the store's Web site theurbannestsf.com is currently offline.

  1. That is really too bad -- a lovely shop and the owner was great too.

  2. I loved this shop back when Jessica, a sort of punk-rock girl, and her adorable dog Zucchini, worked there.

  4. It does seem sudden and I tried to talk two employees about it on different days, and they were both really sour faced, surly and unpleasant about it.

  5. If retaining 24th St. as a vibrant and diverse retail corridor is important to you, please remember to shop locally.
