CVS Coming to 466A & Powell Road
 

Plans have been submitted to build a CVS at the southwest corner of CR 466A and Powell Rd. It will be one of the outbuildings in the parking lot with Home Depot.

Thanks for the info, sadly we are approaching a drug store on every corner again, just like the 70’s. I know in a retirement community pharmacy is a big ticket, but don’t most scripts come mail order? It’s been at least 15 years since I picked up a script.
So far no mattress store, but there is always hope.:pray::1rotfl:

I get all my prescriptions local. No mail order. I don’t know where you get “most”.

Isn’t that right across the street from a Walgreens??

Not sure if we need two drugstores that close.

Yet another nearsighted development decision from the City of Wildwood.

The Villages has enough sense to spread out similar businesses which is better for all.

Maybe it’s because I’m older but lots of times I don’t even know which drugstore I’m in .

I think should adjust your thinking.

Acorn Commercial Partners owns that property and is developing it. It is Acorn that has lined up CVS and Home Depot.

Acorn Commercial Partners is an LLC owned by The Villages Operating Co. -- the same TV Operating Company that develops commercial properties throughout TV.

Do you know if Acorn has any plans to develop south of Warm Springs? Lots of residents and almost no commercial space.

At my home in SRQ we have four Publix within three miles of each other/. Crazy.

Whoop. Wake me when they open. Til then, 😴

Interesting web they weave here for sure.

But my point was it is not in the best interest of Wildwood to approve competing business across the street from each other. There's no evidence the city has a unified commercial development plan.

No matter who builds it.

I pick up my scripts at Publix, never mail order. The diabetes medications are free.

The vast majority of prescriptions do not come mail order. It is a small piece of the pie, although your insurance company would like to make it a much bigger one.

I do wonder why CVS would be building new stores when they announced they would be closing many existing stores.

Isn't there a CVS at the corner of 301 & 44?

Yes.
