McDonald's claims $20m from Florence over piazza restaurant rebuff

The fast-food chain is taking legal action over the ancient city’s refusal to allow it to open an outlet in the Piazza del Duomo

McDonald’s has filed a $20m lawsuit against Florence for blocking a proposed outlet in the city’s most revered square.

The US fast-food chain said on Monday that it was claiming €17.8m ($19.65m) in damages after the city rejected an application to open an outlet in the historic Piazza del Duomo, one of the most visited places in Europe.

The town planners have the right imo, to maintain the square as they want it. Anybody been to Florence?

No but I would think that providing the facades are not affected there should be no objections to McDonalds if there are other restauraunts allowed.

McDonald's have a long track record of littering. It's just the nature of the beast that their customers leave a trail.
