WASHINGTON -- The first Starbucks store on the East Coast, which opened in 1993 on Wisconsin Avenue near the National Cathedral, will serve its last drink Sunday.
The Friendship Center Starbucks is located in the first floor of a non-descript strip shopping center.
It's been known to draw a number of well-known people in for coffee, including former first daughter Chelsea Clinton who was spotted there with classmates when she attended nearby Sidwell Friends School.
Signs posted on the store windows and inside the store offer "sincerest apologies" and thanks to "wonderful customers" who will soon have to find a new place to drink coffee and congregate.
