College Hill residents in opposition of Andy’s Frozen Custard chain opening on Douglas

The Issue

College Hill is an extremely unique historical and charming community nestled in the heart of a major city. The businesses and residents that make up College Hill have collectively adopted an unspoken agreement over the last 100+ years to preserve that history and charm, which is largely why College Hill remains one of the most desired communities to live in the entire city. A large part of what has enabled College Hill to flourish and remain pure and authentic is the residents take great pride in nurturing and patronizing small, locally-owned unique business. 
Andy’s Frozen Custard is a national cookie-cutter restaurant chain that has targeted a very specific area of College Hill, the area within the neighborhood that has the largest collection of small unique businesses. A national chain, regardless of its building architecture, brings an attitude of big city bustling life and inspires visions of neon lights and crowded drive thru lines. Precisely what the overwhelming majority of College Hill residents do not want. Andy’s is attempting to prey on the customers of small, local unique businesses built on the backs of College Hill residents and purists. If we begin to lose those types of business we begin to lose a critical component of such a unique neighborhood.
Let’s keep College Hill unique! Say No to Andy’s!!
