New independent bookstore Book RePort opens in Port Washington, filling Dolphin Books void

Summary

Book RePort, a new independent bookstore and community gathering space, has opened in Port Washington, New York, co-owned by former teachers Mara Silverstein (56) and Kathleen Schechter (48). The store fills the void left by the closure of Dolphin Books in 2022 after 76 years of operation. The co-owners, both married mothers of three daughters, launched the venture to restore a sense of community identity, as many residents felt a town isn't complete without a local bookstore.
