Have other businesses in central closed for similar reasons, or is this a first?

That's why the Dunks and Wendy's closed. I remember the city council denying it at the time when Wendy's actually mentioned it in a press release. Much like they are trying to pretend Starbucks closing is about something else as well. People see what's happening in Central Square despite the council's smoke and mirrors. I've lived here since '92 and this is the worst it has ever been.

Thanks for the insight. Others have said that crime rates are statistically down in Cambridge if you look over the decades. Do you think those rates arent telling the whole story?
