Legacy Books Partner Tanner Will Open “A Real Bookstore” In Mid-November

August 12, 2010
By Michael Cader

As she hinted when the closing on Legacy Books in Plano, TX was announced recently, managing partner Teri Tanner will open a new store, called A Real Bookstore, in nearby Fairview in mid-November. It’s billed as her vision for a “post-recession bookstore.” Though smaller and less flashy than Legacy, it will still have about 20,000 square feet, on a single level. The new location is in a more traditional shopping area, will face traffic directly, and is closer to where core customers live. Tanner, who will be the sole owner this time around, plans a big children’s section with dedicated teen space, lots of events, and popcorn and hot dogs instead of the traditional cafe fare.
