The Enquirer
Two new, locally owned theme stores are set to open late next week at Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport in Delta Air Lines' Concourse B.
The River's Edge will offer art work, with the majority of the paintings and sculptures created by local artists. And the Popcorn Store will offer gourmet popcorn in the main food area in the middle of the concourse.
Both stores will be run by Boone County-based Country Corner Stores, which owns and operates other stores throughout the airport.
