Here is a little map of all the starbucks in New York, showing the loneliest one:

I thought at first I only grabbed the ones in Manhattan, but apparently not, which is main reason that the outcome is idiotic. Anyway, I'd also like to find the location furthest from all starbucks -- i.e. the most isolated place, but I'll have to do that later, not quite sure how, though. I can easily calculate the convex hull of all the points, because I would obviously want a point inside that. Then I'll just have to find a point inside that is furthest from the rest...anyway, time to run in the rain.

Here is the source: starbucks.tar.gz, or browse (though, don't get your hopes up):
