Anyone know what's being built at the intersection? Kind of across the street from Walgreens.

I hate that they tore down that funny little building that used to be on that corner. It was fun trying to guess what was going in there next. Nothing seemed to last very long.

whatever the deal with all those mattress stores?
how many mattresses are sold or needed?
I bought a really good one 15 years ago, that is it.

There is a sign kind of close to the construction site that says "Coming Soon - Spokes Etc.", but I think that's for the building next door.
Please no bank or mattress store.

I remember renting a truck there a long time ago. I think it was Bargain Buggies or Rent a Wreck or something. You could pay cash to rent a vehicle. The lady who worked there was nice.
I also remember a psychic being there.

That funny little building was an old time gas station (probably 40's or 50's).
Anybody remember what brand it was?

U STFU
Interesting opinion, though. However there is a McDonalds not too far down the road. Unless they are closing that one. That one is in the crappy KMart shopping center.

It says it is for retail space. I can't believe even the freaking dunkin donuts didn't work in that little corner. I mean plenty off cops around the area ... I guess we shall wait and see. It has a cool shape but I don't know what they r going to do about the parking space and getting in and out of there cuz that intersection is a pain.

Argh... here comes another waste of space.
The big corner space facing the intersection is going to T-Mobile. Like we really need a huge T-Mobile store. Should have known better considering a Verizon store is across the street.
All of the other spaces have no signage at this time.

With T-Mobile now moving in there, btw, we now have a fine cellphone store district. Afterwards, get some rest by visiting the mattress district in Vienna.
T-Mobile on the corner, Verizon across the street, AT&T across the street where Vitamin Shoppe is, and Sprint where the Five Guys is.

Isn't there is a mattress store across the street from the new T-Mobile? We might not need to go to Vienna. Yay!!!

Do people really still go to cell phone stores? Traffic is such a PITA around there, why would anyone bother trying to go to a T-Mobile store?
