Porter Square Walgreens closing

While not Davis Square, this is still likely of interest since I'm sure many of us are regularly in Porter Square - the Walgreens there is closing on July 30.

It will probably be a shock to few that this store failed, although I'm somewhat surprised that it failed so quickly.

This opened in August 2013, so it didn't even quite get to the 2-year mark.

The store seemed more pleasant than CVS across the street, but I never saw anyone in it. They were 24-hour for a while, but that didn't last. When it opened, I questioned their decision to devote so much floor space to food, with a 24-hour Shaw's/Star right across the street.
