Help Identifying Store

Sep 27, 2012 14:10

Hi all. For those of you who don't know me, I'm Winter, and for 15 years I've been trying to visit every company-operated Starbucks in the world. I'm now at around 10,980, and trying to verify my database so I can correctly identify my 11,000th store.

I have a possible discrepancy with a store in Alderwood Mall. This is a photo of my visit from 2000, when I was working from Microsoft.

Back then, that store was called "Alderwood Mall Relocation", which should have meant that the store had moved, maybe just a store or two, sometime prior to my visit in 2000.

In 2007, I returned to the mall and visited two additional locations, a kiosk, and one outside in the terrace, and I took a new photo of the Alderwood Mall Relocation store.

Well, since the photos are from different angles (one outside, one inside), I cannot tell if they are of the same physical space.

Is the store that exists now, and in 2007, the same as in 2000?

If you could try and forward my question to someone in the Seattle area who might know someone in Lynnwood who might know someone who has been working at the mall a long time, I'd appreciate it.

Makes a difference in my store count.

Winter
