I think you're reading a narrative into it that suits your mindset. According to this article... yes, she says the street has changed around her shop, but she is evolving the business closer to what she wants it to be, and the Gottingen area has changed into a place more suitable for her shop. It's hardly a 'big evil city ruins street and kills local business' story. She will soon have 3 separate shops in the Gottingen area.

As business areas evolve, the Gottingen vibe will suit her business much better than Argyle, and now the space vacated by her store will be available for yet another business to flourish. Sounds more like a success story than the failure that is being portrayed.
