Snapped this about a week ago. I wonder if people will feel comfortable enough in an area surrounded by the parking lot to linger.

Well I'm sure I'd be sitting there in that picture, but I don't know what I'd be doing while seated.
It looks kinda drab, to be honest. Not even a single potted plant to lure a wayward bee to annoy a seated individual.
Give something for them to sit, and I'm sure it'll be great. But if the mission of Sendik's was to have people sit and watch the parking lot for shopping cart vandals, they're sorely mistaken.
