Moonstruck Chocolate headed to the Collection

• The Portland Business Journal indicates that Moonstruck Chocolate, which operates "chocolate cafes" in shopping centers around the country, has signed a lease to open this fall at the Natick Collection. Moonstruck's cafes serve a full line of handmade elegant chocolates, in addition to chocolate drinks, coffee, pastries, and desserts.

Natick Collection construction featured in latest Boston magazine
Written by Justin on June 2, 2007 at 2:25PM

• With the grand opening of the Natick Collection only 96 days away at press time (you can track it for yourself at Framingham/Natick Retail's Natick Collection Countdown Clock), other entities are starting to realize the effect that it will have on luxury shopping in Greater Boston. Boston magazine is one of those, and features a photo shoot of models posing in summer fashions at the construction site in its June issue (starting on pg. 128).
  
• While some of their selections, such as sunglasses from Bloomingdales, don't make much sense given the tenant makeup, it's worth a look if you have it sitting around.
