I've seen a lot of activity over the past few days at the old Exxon station on Burke Center Parkway. What is going in there? Please tell me it's not another bank.

Sign out front says they're still performing inspections, so I doubt Exxon will close.

They are just fixing the underground tanks at the Exxon.
Anyone know if anything is coming where the old Mobil was?

Petro, that's actually what I was asking about - the old Mobile location. I had my gas stations cofused.

Looks like another gas station to replace the last one by the awning that they put up today.

There's way too many banks and gas stations. Every corner has 3 of each.

The folks who own Davis Store (Shell Station on Wolf Run Shoals Rd in FFX Station), are opening a new Shell station there.

That means they own the Davis store, the Shell next to the Springfield Country Club and the Shell by Wal-Mart in Burke.

Really? Had no idea they owned anything other than Davis'. The owner always seemed pretty down to earth and local yokel to me, surprised he’s got such entrepreneurial prowess.

The neon open sign was on in the window today, but the place looked deserted. I heard they are planning to move the Dairy Bar to the Burke location. Might explain why they haven't opened the dairy bar in the Clifton location yet. Peterson's is better anyway, IMO.

Slightly off topic but I agree Elie's Deli is nothing like it used to be. Once it got sold the new owners cheapened the deli meat. It's that disgusting slimy stuff. Haven't been back in at least a year or two. Best deli in that area is now Bernie's off School Street. They have strange hours though so if you're thinking about going there for dinner, guaranteed they're closed by 5 or 6 p.m.
