In-N-Out Burger says it will close its first location in its 75-year history due to a wave of car break-ins, property damage, theft and robberies affecting customers and employees alike at its only restaurant in Oakland, California.

The fast-food burger joint in a busy corridor near Oakland International Airport will close on March 24 because even though the company has taken “repeated steps to create safer conditions our Customers and Associates are regularly victimized,” Denny Warnick, In-N-Out’s chief operating officer, said in a statement Wednesday.

    Omg it has images from 6 years ago and 7 months ago. The difference is absolutely mind blowing. But also in general, to see how it looks now its just so depressing. I’ve been reading a book right now that’s based in the 1930s and this looks and feels like the Hoovertowns they describe.

      It’s really wild. I noticed the lot was up for lease in 2017 also. I’m curious what the story is.

      My images wouldn’t show more recent than 2021. Maybe because I’m on mobile.
