    PEAK Coffee: 4 floor, 43k sqft Starbucks planned for Michigan Ave

    Starbucks is planning to open their largest store in the world on Michigan Avenue at what is now Crate & Barrel. Four floors and a rooftop deck overlooking the Mag Mile. A roastery was announced in China at 30,000 sqft. This will surpass it by a good margin at 43,000 sqft. It's not planned to open until 2019 because Crate & Barrel occupies the space through the end of the year.



    Chicago's Roastery will feature interactive tours, multiple brewing methods and specialty Reserve drinks. In addition to selling Reserve drinks and beans, all Roastery locations will feature foods such as artisan breads from Italian baker Rocco Princi.

    "Reserve" lol

    "Artisan" lol

    Charbucks sucks. It's burnt. You can get far better coffee for $1 at McDonald's or Tim Horton's.

    I do admit a fondness for the eggnog lattes around Christmas time though. Eggnog masks the charcoal taste of the coffee.

    I don't drink their black piss, but I have been using the 2 floor location on Rush street for my anonymous computing needs, so this will be a major upgrade.

    Starbucks giveth, and they taketh away.

    Michigan is much more camera heavy, but I'll give the location a tour when it opens up. Maybe I'll post a review thread with pictures.

    I bet others are using the 2nd floor bathroom for their anonymous hook up needs.

    Anonymous computing I understand, but why do you need to avoid cameras as well?

    Anonymity goes beyond point of contact. If tracked, it comes back to the local modem which is timestamped and can be correlated with the clock on security cameras. The chain of security camera footage can be used to thread a path back to wherever I go.

    This can be avoided by predetermining a path that leaves too large of a jump in camera footage to lose the trail, but time-consuming.

    Please, why don't you educate me big guy...

    A lot of people calling me dumb or faggot, but you assholes are just waiting for someone else to correct me? Please tell me something I don't know about satt imaging, drones or how signals are traced in domestic cities.

    Added: Or is your qualm with how time stamps are recorded? What I said was pretty uncontroversial. Now I'm just curious what hole you think you can poke in that process, it would honestly help improve it.

    what on earth are you doing on the internet that you're concerned that law enforcement would actually go to the trouble of tracking the IP, review the security footage and then try to figure out who you are after seeing the footage?

    I was in that Crate and Barrel last year, it was an amazing store. The place was jammed with people walking around, but there were no lines at the cash register. I can see why they are bailing, nobody really goes to downtown Chicago to buy a couch. It did prompt me to go on the Crate and Barrel website when I got home and I did buy a lamp online.
