Starbucks is closing 600 stores. A list of the stores slated for closure has been released to the general public.
Several years ago This American Life did a segment on a storefront in the Washington (D.C.) area. This storefront, a former pizza parlor whose owner maintained a larger-than-life presence in the community, was considered cursed. There was a murder, the parlor closed and the storefront became the setting for a series of highly unsuccessful businesses, even though the location was considered highly desirable. The conclusion of the story was the report that a new business was moving into the storefront. A Starbucks.
So is this Starbucks on the list?
