No marijuana dispensary at former Family Dollar store

According to Ward 6 alderman Lance Davis, Garden Remedies has withdrawn its application to open a medical marijuana dispensary in the former Family Dollar store at 245 Elm Street.

The city has already approved another dispensary to go into the basement of the bfresh building across the street.

I'm not sad, but I don't want to have a big empty storefront for years like we had across the street until last month. I also hope it doesn't become a bank branch, accountant, or other such thing that contributes nothing to the street.

I had a very strange dream today that involved walking by there and finding that Family Dollar had restocked and reopened the store overnight.

But the burning question........WHEN does Davis Square Donuts open?!?! ;) asking for a friend......

I would personally love it if the Family Dollar turned into something like an Ocean State Job Lot or Harbor Freight Tools.

Is it large enough for those chains?
