Closed for Business: Mill's End

This just in from blogger David Bickford (a.k.a. PHX Rail Food), who Tweeted a Twitpic of the empty storefront this morning: Mill's End, the long-running cafe located on the northern end of Mill Avenue, has closed. It was never a culinary destination, just a cozy hangout for students and urbanites...
