Closing Weekend
We wish a Fond Farewell to Our Wonderful Boston Customers! We are so grateful to all of you who’ve joined us on our Boston Seaport journey! Without your love and support, our indie bookstore could not have opened.

We are very grateful to Kristin Canty at Woods Hill Pier 4 Restaurant who has been one of our biggest champions, and who made it possible for us to open in her building. It has been wonderful being a neighbor.

We love the Seaport area and are confident that in the future, this will be a busy, vibrant place. When the foot traffic increases, it will be possible for indie businesses to thrive. However, the foot traffic is too low at the present time to sustain our indie bookstore, and it is unclear when that might change.

We have done everything possible to succeed in this location. Our book events have been wonderful and people who’ve discovered us have let us know how much they love our bookstore. Just not enough people make it to the Seaport on a daily basis. As customers have let us know, it is challenging to get to the Seaport via public transportation and parking can be difficult and costly.

So, unfortunately, we must follow other businesses in the area who have made the difficult decision to close.

We will continue to operate our lovely waterfront bookstore in Provincetown. Visit East End Books Ptown for a wide range of book selections, vinyl & more. Plus, there is a diverse range of book events all summer. See our website for upcoming events including Billy Eichner, Michael Cunningham, Brad Gooch, Grant Ginder, Meg Stone, Karen Jasper and many more! And of course, drop by to see some of our well know customers like John Waters, Parker Posey & more…

All paper gift certificates will continue to be valid at our Ptown location and E-gift certificates are always available on our website.

Our final weekend & book event is this Sunday at 6pm. Jonathan Goldman “Hidden Histories of Jazz Age New York” in conv. W/Patrick Mullen

Be sure to visit our wonderful neighbors , . ***rowned
