It certainly has, as has the whole of Rye Lane. I know its been discussed before but Rye Lane used to enjoy an incredible reputation as one of Londons premier shopping venues outside of the West End. Jones and Higgins was a massive proper old school department store and 'the lane' had all sorts of quality shopping venues including one of the original Sainsburys which was all marble shelving and so on.
I know things move on and that its easy to get all very judgemental but Rye Lane really is a shadow of its former self on so many levels.
At least its busy - not an empty shop in sight. The hipsters are moving in en masse - check out Franks bar on the roof of the multi story. Actially, this is Franks last weekend until next year IIRC
