No, the best thing is that it occupies what used to be a Christian Science Reading Room, and any day that any religious institution closes is a great day. |

 | OPENED: 04 December 2012, PHOTO: 07 March 2013 This store benefits dramatically from its relocation with myriad unique features. Besides being a Starbucks Reserve, Starbucks Evening, and soon-to-be-LEED certififed, custom artwork can be found throughout, including the elevator! You should take the stairs, though, up to the skylighted second floor, so so you can see the tall mural running up the wall and depicting an Oak tree. Upstairs you will find a second bar with an old Simonelli espresso machine, as well as beer and wine offerings. |
