Where worlds meet –Starbucks moves to top of directory
Gentrified?
Wow!
Long Time No Tea
Long or short?
Thorncliffe Park’s Overlea Plaza at the corner of Overlea Blvd and Beth Nealson Drive is a local meeting place of mixed commercial and cultural phenomena. It may be the only plaza in Canada housing both a Starbucks and Cash Money store. Tell us if we’re wrong. Tuesday, workmen were moving the Starbucks sign from down below up to the top of the plaza’s directory. The sign of the green coffee lady is loved and hated on either of the gentrification agonies. But seldom does it cater to a clientele using payday shops. Elsewhere, customers in sunhats fresh out of Costco down the street mingle with stylish young men in kaftans and thobe trousers. Enjoy.
