Thats what I was thinking. Damn shame the old West Coast is such a challenging place to sell/lease.

Hmmm.

That's why the Dunkin Donuts is packed - it's quick and easy.

CC coffee shops can survive because they get a lot of walking traffic. Midvale does not see that.

So I agree a coffee/sandwhich shop would actually do better on the new West Coast site.
