Barnes and Dunkin
For ex-Squirrel Hillers who may be interested and haven't heard, here are a couple of real estate updates:
1) Barnes & Noble announced a few weeks ago that they're closing their Murray Avenue store. This pisses me off, though not quite as much as the closing of the B&N right across the street from my work a few years ago.
2) Boston Market hung in there at the high-profile corner of Forbes and Shady for about... 16 years? But it closed over the summer, and it's just been replaced by a juiced-up Dunkin Donuts. It has a coffee shop/lounge type atmosphere, complete with bookshelves and board games and a TV. I've never seen one like it.
