It seems that the buy-local movement is blossoming as fast as the urban garden movement (see more on all of this here). In a spirit of cooperation, several years ago I shut up about not wanting any Walgreens in Eastwood and focused instead on its being designed and built properly. I’m sorry I compromised what I know: single-use buildings like this are not built to last more than about 10 years and they’re difficult to fill with other kinds of businesses after they leave. Witness what has not happened in the empty Pep Boys box they stuck in after demolishing the Genesee Theater.
