For example the Walgreens directly across the street from the new CVS in the Death Star, a block away from a Duane Reade. It's about these chains having a prestigious NYC outpost. But being here isn't prestigious anymore. It's just expensive for them. <br /><br />The original plan for the Death Star was to fill it with high end clients but it's an awkward area and other than 1st Dibs and the red rabbit, it's nothing but suburban chain stores housed in an overpriced jagged black pyramid.
