Is there a law that they have to let old gas stations lie fallow for a year or two after they yank the tanks out of the ground? It seems like that's what always happens. (Current case in point, the old Gulf at the corner of Rt 9 and Brookline Ave.)

the remediation process is super expensive and is a bureaucratic nightmare.

Remediation can certainly be expensive, it's a lot easier to not spill chemicals into the soil and groundwater than clean them up. That being said, there are many proven technologies for this, particularly for petroleum. Calling it a bureaucratic nightmare is a bit extreme though. MA has a very well defined set of regulations (the Massachusetts Contingency Plan) that has been around for 25 years now and is well understood by the industry

Renovations. There was a sign on the door a while back (I think this was in April?) saying they were closing until August to improve the store
