Legendarily named Lather Daddy is long gone, Phoenix Comics is happily expanded on Broadway, and longtime neighborhood service provider Perfect Copy and Print has found a new infrastructure-laden home on 12th Ave. Everybody loves a happy ending.

The copy shop is now open in the former laundromat space after a few months-long hunt for a new Capitol Hill home. After nearly 30 years of business on Capitol Hill, owner Asif Alvi was facing yet another move after holding out for years as Broadway was torn up for streetcar, light rail, and development projects. His concerns about finding another space in the neighborhood with the infrastructure required for multiple large copiers and printers were met with opportunity in the former Lather Daddy space. Turns out that washers and dryers also needed a system with plenty of juice.

As CHS reported in August, Perfect Copy’s move was to make way for expansion of Phoenix Comics. Now five years old, Phoenix Comics has completed its expansion into the old Perfect Copy space, knocking out a wall and creating more room for board games, and gaming.

As for Perfect Copy, it is up and running in the old laundry space that has been empty since Lather Daddy lost its lease to start 2019.

Perfect Copy is now located at 1807 12th Ave. You can learn more at printstores.com.
