A number of long standing local places by me are closing / closed due to rents going up. So far most of them have been replaced by major brands (fast food, Starbucks, pearle vision???, Jenis, etc). Landlords would rather get the sure money from a big brand than the unsure money from a locally owned place. It feels like it's spelling the end of locally owned business which is both a real shame, and also an obvious sharpening of a contradiction of capitalism
its also just there arent a lot of good options outside of fast food here. and honestly i think this lady had the best chinese place ive eaten at, not just in the state but the whole region. the entire country will weep she does mean fuckin stuff to mushrooms man i cant believe it
A local pizzeria near me got driven out when a new landlord tripled their rent, and it got replaced by some fucking weird work-from-home....office space thing?
