Urban Planning gone wrong

[m00n.livejournal.com]

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...

Seeing as I was walking by in the morning, possibly? The ICE CREAM part was what I noticed..not particularly the brand.

Seconded. Also eclectic, which is key.

Some of those do look interesting. (Hopefully Wild Turkey refers to bourbon, not meat!)

I can't believe there's actually people here who've never been to Christina's. You guys are seriously missing out!

I think I have been to it in Inman Sq., after eating wonderful portugese food, then seeing Mary Prankster in concert at the Lily Pad...

....it was a while ago :)
