Annie Sitton documents Ligne Roset’s surprise weekend move from that fancy strip mall on Kirby to . . . the River Oaks Shopping Center? Uh . . . wasn’t the mod French furniture store supposed to be moving this April . . . to West Ave?
And what does this move mean for Design Source, West Ave’s prize showroom of showrooms, that Ligne Roset was supposed to headline?
***
Planned to open this morning between Sur La Table and Telfair at Home, in the River Oaks Shopping Center: the new Ligne Roset, at 1992 W. Gray.

Could this be just a temporary move?
I stopped by the new store this morning, did not appear to be a temporary space. They are nowhere near 100% set up, but have a number of items out and are open for business.
word on the street is this is a temporary move to river oaks center until west ave. can deliver the new lease space which has been delayed numerous times.
That’s a fine-looking moving van.
