The lease moved Starbucks from a small neighbouring store to a bigger location with a space of 3,070ft².

It is situated at 0655 W. Indian School Road, just east of 107th Avenue and west of the Loop 101 freeway. The building stood vacant for more than four years after being used by KFC.

It is now being renovated and repositioned for its new Starbucks-related purpose through the new lease agreement.
