Maybe it's just me stuck forever in a time warp, but I really prefer...

Woolworth Stores, great soda fountains
G.C. Murphys, something for everyone
Grants, who needs Sears, besides what did they do with Roebuck...(he's tied up in the basement downtown)
Ben Franklin, cool toys
J. B. Ivey, quality and they stand by it.
Rosenblooms, top shelf
Furchgotts, nice stuff
Cohen Brothers, hey the basement has trains!
That hobby shop downtown, just west of the Main Street car stop.

Oh and JTA, nothing comes close to the 70 Naval Air....


Sorry Developers, you just don't get it.

yep...that's definitely a time warp!

LOL... :D funny you say that... I thought the same thing in a different thread.

Calm down dude :D
In a boat at sea one of the men began to bore a hole in the bottom of the boat. On being remonstrating with, he answered, "I am only boring under my own seat." "Yes," said his companions, "but when the sea rushes in we shall all be drowned with you."

Yet I still have hope for the 1 mil lot across the street overlooking that big sunset exposure lake.....:)

Yes, I know, having impassioned opinions on destruction of the envorionment for yet another boring big box, sprawl and local economies is totally because of sugar and caffeine-- LOLZ!!!!

Take your medicine, bazooka.   :D

I know it's not realistic, but I hope they don't touch those parcels for a LONG time.  I love watching the sunset over that lake from my deck.  And I love driving by it all the time.

best buy is open!  silently opened sometime this week.  CVS and Ameris bank put up their "coming soon" signs.  Mattress Firm/Chipotle poly sign installed at street/sidewalk side.

A couple of things I noticed while sitting in traffic (naturally :-\) around the Markets:  There's a sign at the entrance to Costco for the Markets which shows the names of current tenants and also:  Black Finn, Whiskey River, and Suite.  Any one know anything about those places?  Also, while sitting in traffic (again >:( ) on the other side of the Markets, I noticed some ground clearing and some buildings going up in two areas.  Didn't know if they were related to those 3 Bars or Restaurants I named above.     Anyone?  Anyone?  ???

Well, I know they are building a Bahama Breeze.

The traffic sucks there but use the UNF exit off of 9A. It will save a little time and alot of heartache.

...BARNES AND NOBLES AND PANERAS!!!*

* ever notice how more and more people are adding 's' to the names of businesses that do not have one?  i guarentee you 9 out of every 10 people, if asked, would say the name of the sandwich place is 'PaneraS', not the correct 'Panera'.

Bazooka, try it with an apostrophe.  In proper grammar, it indicates that the subject form is not plural, (Paneras = more than one) but possessive  ("It's one of Panera's cinnamon rolls" = it came from Panera. )  Hope this clears it up somewhat.  Do try their Decaf! *winks*

Duke,

yes they are building something called "The Plaza" which will feature several bars and an outside concert area.  One of the bars is supposed to be open in March of this year.  The complex is owned by Dale Jr...

My only question is where is it? LOL.. I have drivern thru several times looking to see where this might be, but I dont see anything that would be ready to open by March of this year... of course, maybe I am just blind.. lol.. but I have seen the signs out front on Gpkwy.......

A new building is already being built behind the Ameris Bank by the location for this development.
