It's a good location, but with Williams, Matter of Taste, Coffee Culture and Cafe Pyrus already in downtown, Starbucks will have some competition.  But it would be the closest one for Google and UW employees, for sure.

The Dispensary in the Pharmacy building would continue to be their closest choice for coffee during working hours.

There's a lot of competition, but it's still a great location, and I think Starbucks attracts patrons from larger catchment areas than independent coffee shops could hope.

Viewfromthe42, you're so right that if Scotiabank were the sole tenant here, it would be an unfortunate development. Something that attracts more foot traffic would be much better- a Starbucks would be excellent.
