Petunia, a children’s boutique store to be located at 46-21 Skillman Ave., is scheduled to open Wednesday, Sept. 15.

The store, owned by Woodside resident Jill Callan, will sell everything from hand-sewn dresses to gently-used clothes. Some of her inventory will be designed by local artists, with some coming from French, Spanish and Californian designers.

“Providing families with unique, compelling children’s clothing (and gifts) from independent designers is what we’re all about,” Callan said. “I am thrilled to begin this new career adventure right here in my own neighbourhood.”

Meanwhile, Victor Caputo, a 29-year-old attorney, has moved into a new office at 41-08A 48th Street. He has erected a new awning and turned the store frontage into a more appealing environment.

Caputo, a Long Island resident, said he wants to put down roots in the neighborhood and one day move to Sunnyside Gardens.

Caputo specializes in real estate law, from closings to landlord-tenant law. He works in both the residential and commercial arenas.

Twenty people indicted in Queens-based $4.6M vehicle theft ring after three-year probe: DA

Twenty individuals were indicted and variously charged in a wide-ranging scheme to steal cars in Queens, throughout New York City and its suburbs, following a three-year investigation by the Queens District Attorney’s Office, the NYPD, and the New York State Police dubbed “Operation Hellcat,” into the criminal enterprise based in Queens.

Some of the vehicles were stolen from owners’ driveways, some with the keys or key fobs inside. The stolen vehicles were often sold through advertisements on social media platforms such as Facebook and Instagram. The defendants are charged in nine separate indictments for a total of 373 counts, Queens District Attorney Melinda Katz announced on Thursday.
