    Bizarre at it may sound, I was told it's a shipping type store. UPS/USPS drop off store. The contractor is really kicking it,not wasting anytime getting the place open. Another weird/sad note the mom and pop food place on Franklin (next to the new burger place) looks like they quit. Franklin has lots of open shops

    Wow a shipping place. The exterior looks like an Irish Pub. Well best of luck to them, we all need to ship stuff I suppose. Lots of stuff going on on Franklin...

    Yeah I thought it was going to be a pub as well, I live on lincoln a few doors down from that spot, and I wondered what was going on there. That's an odd facade for a shipping place.

    Hopefully this is incorrect and it will turn out to be a pub. The immediate area could always use more bars, especially ones that serve food!

    frankly, i could use a shipping place more. i've been missing FB enterprises since they closed, and i am happy with my current pub options (wash commons, franklin park, smattering of new places on washington....)

    yes, thanks. i don't love it -- the things i sent from there at christmas cost a fortune. these stores can set their own prices, and i felt ripped off.

    I dont know, the light fixtures?? This has to be something other than a shipping place. Unless they also serve drinks, maybe New Orleans style.

    I peaked through the door yesterday and saw....MAILBOXES!

    This shop may possibly be the most beautiful shipping place ever. OR, maybe it'll be half shipping place and half pub?

    One can dream.

    Subject: not even two grapes?

    Away We Go has horrible customer service and very few options for working class folk that need to receive packages at a PO box. I went in there around xmas looking for a 1-2 month box so my Mom could send me packages. They only had a year rent to offer. I asked the woman there if she knew of any other options I could try. She just said "no" and seemed not to give two grapes about helping me out. This wasn't the only time I've had their people tick me off, just the most recent. And last!

    A service that accepts packages for a fee would make money.
