Article: Optical Store Opens At College Row ; Geoffrey Beene Closing Centerville Businesses

European Eyewear, an optical store, opened Nov. 18 at 741 Harrisburg Pike in College Row, the retail strip at Franklin & Marshall College.

The store, next to Iron Hill Brewery, specializes in high-end European glasses and sunglasses, its owner Joe Mitchell said.

The store moved from 438 N. Duke St., where it operated as Olde Towne Opticians. This summer, Mitchell bought the shop from his uncle, Charles Mohn Jr., who founded it 17 years ago.

Mitchell said the new space is slightly larger and more modern, reflecting the upscale merchandise. Mitchell, who is the store's sole employee, said he eventually hopes to bring a full-time optometrist on board.
