Two Fires In Granite Run Area

Yesterday, at the ACME at the Promenade At Granite Run, there was a small fire. It is unknown what caused the fire, but luckily it wasn't anything bad. Near there, a month earlier, there was also a fire at the Riddle Hospital's doctors' office. This fire happened after hours, and the cause of it was a CAT scanner caught on fire, and the doctors' office's sprinkler system went off and many things were ruined.

The Towne House's Legend Lives On

The Towne House has been closed for about two years now. And yet, it's legend lives on. And I'm not talking about the building itself, but a sign on on Baltimore Avenue in front of the ACME. The sign says: 

The Towne House 

Thursday 12:15 

Rotary International 

. . . basically meaning that every Thursday at 12:15, there was a Rotary International meeting at the Towne House.

Wawa Nears The Finish Line

The new Super Wawa that has been talked about for many years is almost finished. All of the siding has been built, the gas pumps look finished, the inside is almost done, and they are gardening the outside (even benches!) If you want to share your opinion on how the finished product looks, look at the top of the page and you can  cast your vote!

Lots of Progress Around Media

There is a new big crane at West End Flats. This shows that more steel work is coming, and the building is growing quickly now.

You can now see this large crane at West End Flats

And that is not the only thing happening,  The T-Mobile store is now open (see prior post).  And take a drive out on Baltimore Pike and you will see a lot of progress at Granite Run.

Update to 5/26 Post: T-Mobile Coming to Media Shopping Center

As said in another post, a new store is coming to the Media Shopping Center in between the Lab Corp and Supercuts. We heard the store is going to be a T-Mobile. It is always good to see one less empty store front.

We also heard that the new Wawa in Media will be opening around July 26-28th.

Something New At Media Shopping Center

In between Labcorp and Supercuts at the Media Shopping Center, a new store might be coming. Big wooden crates are outside the building, looking like moving crates. Inside, they are working on the walls and other things.  It is good to know that Media is getting a new business. I can't remember this shopping center ever being 100% full, but this could be a step closer.

Activity this week at the Media Shopping Center

Clydesdales!

After almost two years, the Clydesdale horses are coming back to Media. They will be in State Street on Sunday, May 28.  This is a good thing, because this means that Media might get this privilege more often. And that means that Media gets more attention and the restaurants will be busy.

This is an image of the Clydesdales last time  they came to Media.
