Funky Flatbush store closes its doors

A huge thanks to Harriet's Alter Ego for re-energizing the Park Slope/Prospect Heights stretch of Flatbush Avenue with its offbeat fashions. But alas, it has become the latest victim of the "very sick" (President-elect Barack Obama's words) economy. Snap up the boutique's trends for as little as $20 or $30 before it closes its doors on Jan. 10.
