As I was driving through a popular Saratoga County shopping area, I noticed that a usually very busy Starbucks was closed. It was so obvious. Not just because there was no line in the drive-thru, but because the signs and the marquis were completely removed from the building.
After major retailer Bed Bath & Beyond closed locations across the country, many of those shuttered stores remain empty. There is an empty one in Albany County that is being transformed into a new HomeGoods store.
