Isn't there an Amish furniture place just north of Bruster's in Hollywood? It is sad, I have lived here all my life and never gone in that store. Living in a condo I don't have much room for anything anyway.

If you are thinking of Thompson's, they closed a few years ago.

Looks like someone's getting ready to clear trees on the lot south next to the Used Car Factory in Mechanicsville. There has been a start of a paved entrance off 235 and Old Village Rd for years there. Any insight? I hate to see Mechanicsville grow, I live pretty close to this and like my peaceful area.

Figure bring those storefronts out to the front of Sears, you more than double the square footage of each one. Allows for a larger group of merchants who might have passed up that location simply because there isn't enough square footage for what they sell.

looking at the businesses that occupy those stores now, I don't think they would want more square footage and the higher rent associated with same. First time in a long time that that center has been close to full. I think there are a few openings and they happen to be the larger units.

If you are talking about across from Academy Hills on 5, that is Hampton's apartment project. They are putting 100 apartments in two massive buildings, and the only entrance and exit is the one across from Academy Hills with no light.

On the flip side, my wife stopped in at A&W/Long John Silver's last night. The cashier said that this Sunday, Dec 20th, was going to be their last day open.

Oh, there will be a light there, bet your bottom dollar on that (the developer will see to it).
Which in turn will make access to Ryken difficult when northbound 5 backs up at the new light :)

Heaven FORBID somebody should be inconvenienced by traffic! OH THE HORRORS! How DARE they have to wait a whole 30 seconds to cross a busy road.
 
I've heard from a good source that the old bank on the corner of MacArthur Blvd and Rt 235 is going to become a Krispy Kreme.

Talk about traffic jams.
