 | OPENED: ?, PHOTO: 03 July 2000 This store is unusual in two respects--check out that cool flag with the Starbucks logo. And inside, morning rush customers pour their own coffee from holders set out on a counter. The local art displayed on the wall (at least when I was there) is really cool. This is also Second store I've encountered next to a Sandella's (a crappy delicatessin, if one can so judge based solely on one croissant). Oh, and let's not forget to point out one the view of the two World Trade Center towers in the background. |

 | OPENED: ?, PHOTO: 05 August 2002 This store maintains a separate register on a stand apart from the main counter, presumably for the morning rush. There is also a separated seating area with a wooden floor. |

 | OPENED: ?, PHOTO: 03 February 2008, ORIGINAL VISIT: 03 July 2000 Just down Broad Street is the famous New York Stock Exchange. This store itself is pretty plush, with ample space and an unusually wide curved divider (almost horseshoe-shaped) that could almost serve as a bar or counter if it weren't covered in merchandise. |

 | OPENED: ?, PHOTO: 03 August 2002 This store displays photos depicting a history of Carnegie Hall, which, by some amazing coincidence, happens to be right across the street (or around the block--I forget). |
 | OPENED: ?, PHOTO: 05 July 2000 Okay... that is REALLY weird. I've found some really strange data spouted by the Starbucks Store Locator, such as Asian locations plotted in the middle of the U.S., but this is the oddest name for a store yet. I mean, it has an address, so why not use it? Did the person entering the data just get lazy or what? As for the store itself, it is unusual in that you have to walk down a ramp and reverse direction to reach the counter. |
 | OPENED: ?, PHOTO: 03 September 2004 This store's address appears to be incorrect, and I ended up driving for hours around Columbus Circle until I spotted it off on 58th Street. |

But what's really neat is that the local art is part of a community project, the "Make the World a Better Place" organization. Pretty good photographs taken by youths of varying ages, with descriptions of what they would like to do to MAPB. |

I would discover the same in many of the stores I visited in the area. Unfortunately for the customers who signed up, barely a month later MobileStar announced that it was going out of business and disabled its network. I feel so... disconnected. |
 | OPENED: ?, PHOTO: 02 June 2007, ORIGINAL VISIT: 09 October 2005 This first store on the Lower East Side brings worries that the character of the neighborhood will change. Artsy types can maybe take comfort in the historical photos displayed along a couple of walls. |

 | OPENED: ?, PHOTO: 02 June 2007, ORIGINAL VISIT: 03 July 2000 I almost left this store without noticing the cute little room in the back. And I mean little--like, even 10 people in there would be crowded. On the other hand, it's fairly private--well, except for the picture window. |
 | OPENED: 28 February 2009, PHOTO: 12 October 2009 This newer NYC store has a newer design that prominently features a large conference table made of an interesting type of wood, maybe recycled. The chairs and tables are of a different style than we are used to, and the comfy chairs are kind of art-deco looking. But the store's coolest feature is a large mural that represents the area. |
 | OPENED: ?, PHOTO: ? This location has plenty of style throughout. First thing you'll notice is a large mural on the back wall depicting an audience dressed for the theater. I wondered if it might have been painted for a former occupant, but a barista revealed that a friend of his had done the work. Paintains in simular classic styles adorn the other walls. Plush curtains and mirrors throughout the store, including some that server to block the light coming in the ample picture window. I do think the corporate-style furniture classes with the unique couches, benches, and tables. And the overhead lights--I can only describe them as funky because I don't know what else to say. |
 | OPENED: ?, PHOTO: 06 February 2005 One of the largest stores in Manhattan, which could be larger still if they opened up the upstairs for customers. |
 | OPENED: 06 June 2008, PHOTO: 24 August 2008 Finally, 8 years after I was surprised to learn there was no Starbucks in the Empire State Building, the long-awaited store arrives! And, as we would expect, this two-store location displays artwork commemorating the building. |
 | OPENED: ?, PHOTO: 05 July 2000 This might be minor, but according to a visitor to my site, this store is really in Grand Central Terminal. Find out more at http://www.historychannel.com/exhibits/grand/trivia.html |
 | OPENED: ?, PHOTO: 05 August 2002 Ditto. And also, this was the first store where I noticed the "ESTD 1971 STARBUCKS COFFEE COMPANY" sign, in frosted text, on the window, in a style that matches the 30th anniversary t-shirt. |

So go vote for Bush and ensure that Ashcroft can continue to keep us safe from those evil terrorists!

The Shops at Atlas Park, Queens, Glendale | ||

 | OPENED: ?, PHOTO: ? This store is as large on the inside as it looks from the outside, and perhaps a little too large. The staff clearly can't monitor the upstairs, and the result is that the tables and windowsills are marred with graffiti. But don't let that keep you away. Check out the store for the art on display, and sit on the balcony overlooking the Shellbank Basin. |
