News McDonald's in Little Five Points?

Posted by Ken Edelstein on Fri, May 30, 2008 at 1:36 PM

No, the burger behemoth isn’t opening a store in the alt-hippie neighborhood. But a crew was filming a commercial in the parking lot in front of Junkman’s Daughter this morning.

So the ultimate fast-food chain comes to L5P in search of scenery that it can use to brand itself as authentic, i.e. non-chain-ish. Isn’t that kind of like self-hatred?

I just saw L5P plaza area in front of Stefan's on the McDonald's commercial in the All Star game. I could have sworn it was L5P and my google search took me here. Awesome.
