Former Juliet Theater to become Vassar’s bookstore
An expanded Vassar College bookstore is planned for 60 Raymond Avenue. Located at the corner of Raymond and Collegeview Avenues, across from the north end of campus, this address was home to the Juliet movie theater and currently houses the Juliet Pizza and Billiard establishment. The college expects the new bookstore to be open longer hours, sell a wider selection of general interest books, merchandise, and Vassar clothing and gifts, and include an entertainment space. The store also will continue to serve Vassar faculty members ordering textbooks and other class materials. “We’re very excited to be creating a new retail anchor and gathering place in our neighborhood,” said President Cappy Hill.
