Nov 28, 2016 | Contributor: Nicolle MonicoYou know what New York City could really use more of? Starbucks locations! Yeah, this wasn't the answer we were expecting either. In a city filled with 220 Sbux stores and counting, you might think the Big Apple already has its fair share of the coffee conglomerate, but you’d be wrong.
