Controversy is brewing over the Trenton Starbucks Community Store, which the company confirms will close on March 30."That’s so sad. This is our favorite Starbucks," said customer Haley Billings.

"It gives us encouragement to walk, be outside get healthy snacks going.

"The City is investing into a makeover. We’re about to prepare for historic tourism with our country’s 250th celebration, so we were hoping that Starbucks would hang in there as we do the makeover of our downtown and more businesses are coming into the block," said Mayor Gusciora.
