Northridge commons update

For a full year after Walmart and Lowes (the 2 anchors of the center) opened their doors to the public, here are the tenants...

1. GameSTOP
2. U.S. Cellular
3. ABC Liquor
4. LG Nails
5. HomeTrust Bank (OPENING DECEMBER 2010)

It seems FOREVER for any other store to open in the center. If you had the choice what would you like to be going into the center?

One more thing, I have looked at the centers website and the site plans CHANGED AGAIN! It looks like we might be getting a 60000-70000 sq. ft store (KOHLS, JC PENNY, BELK in the making in possibly 2011??) which will be to the left of Walmart in the huge empty field, and a possible Dollar Tree. They have also moved the weaver house (the empty victorian house behind walmart) across the road to a small 1/2 acre lot and they are restoring the home to accomodate it for offices. I will try and keep you all informed for the latest news on this center.

Ok I am back!

After several months of no activity, I am back to blogging. Thank you to all of my followers on the site for your support.

Liquor by the Glass?

I am currently following the voting results of the LBTD for the town of weaverville. So far it is leading FOR 507 to 246. I predict us getting it. If so, what kind's of Restaurants do you think Weaverville will Get?

Northridge Commons Update

The weaverville Walmart is one step ahead to opening. The contractor has the signs on the building, the parking lot is stripped, and the parking lot signs are up. The widening work on Monticello Road as well as US 25-70 are almost done, with the only things left to do are: Road signs, turn on the new traffic signals and install guardrails. I expect all work done by the first of may. Stay tuned as I will try and get photos up by the end of this week

New carwash.

If you need a car wash, weaverville NC has another location to wash your car. It is located at the Weaverville Ingles, 140 weaver blvd. I believe the price to get a carwash is between 8-10 dollars.

weaverville ingles has a new addition

I am pleased to announce that the building contractor that is building the new portion onto the weaverville ingles has opened the new part of the building to customers with the exception of the pharmacy, garden center and the car wash..

Flat Creek Village

This is a picture of the "coming soon" Flat creek village". If you havent seen it, it is a big piece of land thats cut into 8 tracts of land. The only building is a 2 story building with a doctors office, a rainbow vacuum cleaner sales center, mercer design center, and the developers office. Right above the land is where North Windy Ridge School is as well as the future North Asheville Baptist church (might become the largest church in WNC once its built, surpassing Biltmore Baptist.
