\t\t\t\t\"Starbucks-temporarily-closed\"<\/a>Stapleton residents have had to deal with their share of adversity. From potentially being forced to have kids go to one great school when they wanted to go to a different great school, to patiently waiting for an Eastbridge town center for eight years and running. But, Stapleton residents have endured these tough times and situations. \u201cWe as a community have been through a lot,\u201d said resident David Brennan. \u201cLook at the recent hail storms, and then I think even a tornado was pretty close from what I have heard. But, as they say, adversity builds character.\u201d\n\nStapleton\u2019s character is being tested yet again more recently, as the 29th St. Starbucks is being temporarily closed for construction. \u201cI went to go there on Saturday, and saw the damage,\u201d said resident Sean Miller. \u201cIt was pretty horrifying. I\u2019m just glad the kids weren\u2019t here to see it.\u201d Miller was referring to the \u2018temporarily closed\u2019 signage as well as some visible construction inside the Starbucks store. \u201cMore than anything I hope these workers are able to clean up the disaster and make things right again,\u201d said Miller. Many residents are being forced to go to the Starbucks inside the King Soopers or even the Starbucks in Northfield. Some have even grabbed their coffee at Etai\u2019s or Einstein\u2019s. \u201cI actually think Etai\u2019s has better coffee,\u201d said Anne Bearbower. \u201cBut, I have always gone to Starbucks, so it\u2019s just kind of what I do.\nSome residents are taking it a step further when it comes getting the Starbucks to re-open more quickly. And they are doing this the best way they know how: social media. \u201cI started a \u2018re-open the Stapleton Starbucks<\/a>\u2019 Facebook site,\u201d said resident Jennifer Vardaman. \u201cWe hope that we can start generating community support for this cause, and then force Forest City and the MCA to do everything necessary to get it opened more quickly.\u201d\nIt\u2019s unclear how long the Starbucks will be closed, but residents are preparing for the worst. \u201cI\u2019ll just have to get up a little earlier to go to the King Sooper\u2019s Starbucks,\u201d said Miller. \u201cI really don\u2019t like going in there, but throughout our lives, we all have to make sacrifices.\u201d For this East Denver community, it\u2019s just one more misfortune they will have to endure. Hopefully, they will be stronger for it.\n]]>\t\t<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
