No! We don’t want a Wal Mart south of 44!

44
 

Actually Route 44 will be the next 466. 470 will also build out with retail and has been zoned for such. Give it time but, 466A Wildwood is already getting there.

You are probably right - 466A is starting to fill in now - I can see 44 being wall-to-wall retail between Buena Vista and Morse 5-10 years from now. I’m just enjoying the lack of retail craziness while I can, though I would welcome a few non-chain restaurants to the south (a good N.Y. Pizza joint, a taqueria that also sells breakfast burritos, a pho restaurant, a good gyros place, etc.

Do we need another Walmart.

My favorite Tina Turner song.

I would think that businesses would go into 470 ahead of 44. 470 is off the Turnpike and there are a lot of people living in that area that would prefer businesses near them rather than driving up to 44 or 466A.

Putting them in on 44 won’t be much of a benefit to the people living down south.

It is less than two miles on Powell between 44 and 466A and less than 3.5 on Morse between 44 and 466A.

If you take Meggison and Morse, it is about 7 miles from 470 to 44 and about 11 miles from 470 to Powell and 44.

I mean, I would like to see a Walmart Neighborhood Market somewhere along 44 so we have an affordable option for groceries nearby. Right now, it’s really just Publix, and if I’m going to overpay, I’d rather drive up to Fresh Market. I expect once Middleton is really rooted in, Walmart may consider a supercenter somewhere further south.

We need more Dollar General stores. Not.
