100% agree. Too many barren stretches on parking lots and car spaces on Broadway. No one wants to walk past lot after lot. Density now!

@cac809c80c13fd3274aa5b1f82195680:disqus I am all for Starbucks. I don’t get these people that seem to think they should have a say in what opens up there when they are not the ones stepping up financially. Heck I’d be all for some sort of unique independent business but Starbucks is better than an ugly empty yellow fast food place.

If I wanted Starbucks and CVS/Walgreens on every corner I would move to the suburbs. The city is looking more like this every year. It’s not adding anything to our neighborhood it’s just more of the same.

Ooops, we just got a business interested in investing in Edgewater. We hate it don’t we? Let’s just keep only empty storefronts with 3rd rate art here. Having Starbucks invest here just might interest other innovative investors to the dilapidated street. Boo Hoo

while i’m not against a starbucks opening on the corner, what i don’t like is the continued auto-centric design of the development. this corner should be built up with higher density.

I agree that corner is an eyesore. Another type of business that wouldn’t jeopardize the independent (tastier) coffee houses would be a better option.

Because it’s opening on a sh*tty corner that’s been vacant for years. And it’s an interesting concept. Anything opening on that corner would be progress as far as I’m concerned.

Why is ANOTHER Starbucks considered “progress”?

People just hate any progress in Edgewater. I guess we should just rename Edgewater — Backwater.
