Starbucks and others like Walgreens TARGET these places and buy them and or put their store there or right next door to benefit from the foot traffic these places have gained over the years, do not forget that. And the Starbucks guy accused some other guy of stifling small businesses, Starbucks business model is to stifle or kill other businesses. They put a Starbucks right next to my business and I also saw this in a magazine about Diners, Roadside magazine. I hope this place makes it though, many of these cool old places are falling one by one. Damn, stop going to these faceless no history places people.
