New Canaan Ski and Sport on Main Street To Close Saturday

New Canaan Ski and Sport will close Saturday, after three years on Main Street, according to its owner. The owner of 112 Main St.—a building that dates to 1880, tax records show, and includes Ski and Sport (at number 110) as well as Connecticut Muffin and Donald Rich Antiques—last week gave the provider of skis and related apparel and equipment notice to vacate, Susan Alberino said. “We loved our little spot here, we absolutely loved it,” Alberino told NewCanaanite.com. “This year business was off and I don’t know why, or what to attribute it to. But in talking to a few of the other retailers in the immediately area, everybody has the same problem.”

New Canaan Ski and Sport had occupied a commercial space in downtown New Canaan from 1976 to 2012, mostly on Main Street opposite Morse Court.
