While some business are paring back for economic reasons, the latest [Starbucks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/greener-store) New York City location is doing anything but. It will be the second of its kind in the rich history of the [coffee shop chain](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/starbucks-multiserve). Like the Roastery, which is located in the company's hometown of Seattle, this shop will boast 20,000 square feet.

The Starbucks New York City location could very well mimic the vibe of the Roastery as well -- which takes on a Willie Wonka sort of vibe with its coffee shuttle tubes and warehouse feels. Although not much information has been released about this coffee shop, it will be found in the Chelsea area in a building currently being constructed.
