"Nobletree Coffee closed back at the end of May less than six months in the neighborhood. A notice posted outside of the building stated that the location shuttered “because of the slow foot traffic at the location.” A printed sign has been attached under the notice reading: “Please don’t blame the neighborhood for slow foot traffic. Maybe it was your mediocre coffee and bad service? Sincerely, East Village Residents.”" - Kayla Kumari Upadhyaya
