I've heard that the Yogurt Corner located in the Food Court of 20 Federal Place is no longer allowed to serve coffee. This was a provision in the terms of their new lease. Will other Food Court restaurants suffer the same fate when their leases expire.

:'(

Does city council have a committee that deals with commerce? Since 20 Federal Place is a city building, this restriction of commerce should be addressed by city council.

i bet you two to one that no one in J's administration knows what their left hand and their right hand is doing these days with the coffee wars at federal place. i would not support the coffee shop and force them to close or come to their senses.

I don't really have an opinion on this. But all of the opposition makes me want to play devil's advocate.

Are there any other places currently in the food court that specialize in selling these products? Maybe the Yogurt Corner should start selling pizza, gyros, or Mexican food? :-\

The Yougurt Corner should have exclusive rights to sell yogurt at least.

How about each establishment having the exclusive right to sell any food and drink type products that they damn well please? This entire issue is about as brain dead as they come in Youngstown, Greens excluded.
