Banana Republic Taking Over Double Door Space ?

Banana Republic - Double DoorChicagoist totally missed this but site reader Jasmine brought it to our attention today - On page 184 of the September issue of Chicago Magazine in the "On the Scene" column it says:

"...The rumor mill is abuzz as word on the street is that Banana Republic may be moving into Bucktown. Sad thing is, they apparently have their eyes set on Double Door's space."

Does anyone know what the hell is going on? Double Door can't be going the way of Big Wig and Fireside. So what do they mean about Banana taking Double Door's space? We need more information STAT!!!!!!
