OAK CREST EXPANSION
Royal Farms, Chipotle Moving Forward
Have you noticed the land grading happening across from Wildewood, near Aldi? It’s preparation for development of the Oak Crest PUD, previously approved by the Planning Commission in 2019. A Royal Farms convenience store/gas station and car wash will go on the corner, with Chipotle in the middle, and an as yet unnamed restaurant rounding out the road frontage.
The State Highway Administration has approved a new right-in/right-out entrance off northbound 235, and two entrances from Oak Crest Road will also feed the new businesses. The Department of Land Use and Growth Management released permits for Royal Farms in January 2024.
The site behind these locations was once planned for a large retail presence, but that fell through. Instead, later plans show the potential development of three flex space buildings similar to those past RC Theaters. This site was annexed into the Oak Crest PUD, and later given a site specific approval extension requested by the owner because development has not yet commenced.

Charlotte Hall’s already open.

Can’t see I ever see it very busy.
That's cause the service is horrible. Most of the protein wasn't cooked and ready to be served, I asked for guacamole and got the smallest spoonful I ever saw, for like $3. Not impressed

Not a new business, but I noticed when I was in Cooks in Park Hall earlier this week, the business has been sold to ….ah….. um…. people not from here. Very unfortunate.

Just greet them with Allahu Akbar and everything will be OK.

Did I see one of buildings from the old Wentworth Nursery taken down on Oaks Road? From the last time I drove past I saw a backhoe on the property.

I have heard we are expecting Royal Farms near Aldi in Wildewood and one outside gate 2. Anyone have an idea when they're coming?

It looks like after about a year of nothing and two years of mostly nothing, that piece of development across from the Moose Lodge in Hollywood is resuming. They now have curbs marking the edge of the drive space - and frankly I don’t see how they fit those three little shops in there and STILL leave a place to park.
