What's your cursed retail spot?

I noticed Mandi House (Yemenese?) is coming up at 680 Valencia. This was Smoking Joe's BBQ for the last six months, Petra Mediterranean with a Mitchell's Ice Cream pop-up and belly dancing in 2024, "The Kickback" breakfast and bar in 2023. I'm pretty sure it's been the same owner, and it's never ever succeeded in any way. With every attempt, it's always dead empty inside. For a while, they blamed the Valencia bike lane, but it can't be because Dumpling Story right next door is always bustling. 100% the place is cursed, maybe cursed with bad ownership.

So what other store fronts are cursed?
