Starbucks looses

A reader points out that Starbucks could re-open one of the two stores they abandoned on Mag. St. after Katrina.

I can think of only one at the moment but that one is interesting. It sits on the corner of Magazine and Nashville, across the street from a locally owned coffee shop. I met with the owner of the local shop and she told me it was a struggle to compete with Starbucks, but she held on. Now Starbucks is gone and the local shop is still open.
