Urban Planning gone wrong

While we are on the topic of community development, does anyone have an explanation for there now being a third convenience store in Teele Square within view of the other two?



Beyond the fact that I don't feel like these stores contribute much (if anything) to the community, I'm kind of wondering how it is that this neighborhood can even support three of them (four if you count the Indian market down the street that sells pretty much all the same stuff).

I don't mean to be such a community troll about these things, but I live in that neighborhood and it is starting to get a little depressing...

I'm just saying what I would love instead of 3 quickie marts within 200 feet of each other.

Renee's would be perfect if they stayed open past lunch and ran as a coffee shop, but it's not my shop and he didn't seem receptive to the idea.

Indeed three of almost any of our many fine local businesses would be better than 3 convenience stores.
