Good news for JP bank fans

By adamg on Fri, 08/02/2019 - 10:03am

Jamaica Plain News reports that the corner spot at Centre and Burroughs streets vacated when Bukhara decamped for distant Forest Hills will be turned into a Chase bank branch by the end of October. The move will ease the critical bank shortage caused a couple years ago when Caffe Nero replaced a Commonwalth Bank branch down the street from the location.

The Manhattanization of Boston has commenced! Bank branches and national chains are coming for your vibrant small business store fronts.

So lame and disappointing. There is also a bank going in at 3525 Washington street. Who still goes to banks? Time travelers from the 1970s who haven't heard of the internet yet?

In case one of the other 5 bank branches within a 2 minute walking radius weren't enough

Bank robbers, judging by UHub stories.

Economic success of JP? Slicing away part of what makes JP a neighborhood good for human beings.

I think the greedy owners of these spaces can take part of the blame/credit.
