Well, the 12 & Woodward location does seem to hold some promise. It would,
however be
irresponsible of me not to play some Devil's advocate. I mean, the market is
going to be far
tougher than I could. Here's my list of concerns;

1. No foot traffic (well very little)
2. Invisible from Woodward (unless you are looking for it and know where to
look)
3. Place has been empty for a few years - what does the rest of the market know?
4. That extra space cuts both ways.
A. The fixed costs associated with extra space are extra rent as we know, but
there is also a
cost to heat (and cool) as well as labor hours required to keep the place clean.
B. Can you cover the build out for that much space?
5. How does the city of Berkley feel about allowing on site roasting? No matter
how much we
might like the aroma, the neighbors might not want it. Anyone familiar with the
city
leadership there?

I am sure that your business plan already covers at least some of these items,
but since I
have not had a chance to see it yet, these are my thoughts.
