East Boston could get a 24-hour Starbucks

Starbucks goes before the Licensing Board for the City that Always Sleeps next week for permission to keep its outlet at 430 McClellan Highway, open 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

The coffee place, in the heart of the strip of park-n-fly and other airport-related concerns, currently has hours of 5 a.m. to midnight.

The board's Zoomed hearings begin at 10 a.m. on Wednesday.
