Default Re: Colony Cottage Gas Station on 466A

I heard from a normally reliable source today that the Chevron station will be closing at the end of the month. My source told me that the station was paying $20,000. per month rent -- don't know if that included or if there was also a % of sales charge like in most of the stores.

That's just too damn much rent for that area today. Maybe in a few years when the present southern end is filled out and there are a ton of homes south of 466A and more businesses down there and the medical area fills out and 466A gets more thru traffic and . . . Nobody could afford $20K a month for a gas station there now, no matter what they charged for gas.
