A Sea Of Red

Surveyors out at Billy Craft Honda. Usually done just before a sale. Lots of juicy rumors and if ha;f come true it will be awesome.

If most posters had dropped the word "mall" in here I would've quickly dismissed it as another cheesy retail development. But the fact that you are using the terminology and closing it out with the word "awesome" has me seriously intrigued from halfway across the continent.

Please please please... Costco

Too bad Craft waited so long to get started on the new digs. I do know that Kroger had been eyeing his property several years ago. There will likely be development announced across from that corner long before his building is gone and the cut through is vacated.

I'm pretty sure this is where a Costco is going. Someone was telling me they were coming but I was half listening.

Just give me a protected turn lane from 501 to 221 with a dedicated lane on 221 to clear out half the vehicles

Is this different from the development proposed beside Aldi? There has been a rezoning proposed for that property:

That development is to include retail, with one rather large space, sit down restaurants, fast food restaurants (Chick-fil-A?), and a hotel.

Also I saw a weird Zoning Certification for a proposed Chick-fil-A on the parcel with the old K-Mart where Hobby Lobby is being built. Anyone know anything about this?

Most of that ovove conversation is about the other side of 221. Billy Craft Honda is moving next to sheetz.

I had heard rumors about the Chick-fil-A at Hobby Lobby but the permit certified in 3 days!

Can't help but wonder if Dwayne, who owns the CFA on Candlers, has grown tired of the traffic and cramped quarters and is seeking something bigger.

It's the 3rd busiest in the country. They probably, and rightfully, believe they can support two more here.

That was my guess as well, the one on Candlers moves there and adds indoor seating.

Then Sonic should come back and locate at the finer CFA on Candlers lol

Seems like a CFA in Forest near the Kroger shopping center and one near the Old Forest/Lakeside area would do a killing. I know I certainly would be going to CFA more often since it would be closer to where I am and if I didn't have to deal with the mess that is Wards/Candlers Mountain traffic. I never even attempt to go to the one on Wards Road, every time I am over on that side of town it's packed full.

Build more Burger Kings. Enough chicken places around now.

My understanding is Lee will be owning the CFA on 221. Heard from someone else that the one going in across from Kroger (not owned by Lee or Dwayne) is a sealed deal but outside of hearsay I don't have anything else to substantiate that one.
