Another new store front in Media!

If you went to the Media food fest, and you entered it by the Media theater, you would have seen a new store! At the site of the old China Nails Salon, there is a new store called "Studio 47." (Or it least has a new name). Here is the picture. Since it was the food fest, we apologize for the amount of people in it.

Two New Retail Stores On State Street!

On State Street, in the old spot of the Media Florist, a new store is coming in. It will be called "Unique Boutique." Right next to it, another new store is coming in. It will be called "Home To DVD". It will be a store where you bring in your home videos and they will put it on DVD. Here are some pictures of the new retail spots:

Here is the new store, "Unique Boutique"

Media Flashback: Retail Growth At The Media Shopping Center!

Over the course of the year, the Media Shopping Center has grown in different ways. For starters, a long time after the old "We Love Pets," a Petvalu has come! Second, after the old Tantopia closed, a 

T. Mobile came. Third, after the Verizon closed, the Benjamin Moore changed locations and moved in there. Finally, once the Lukoil shuttered its windows, it has been torn down to be rebuilt into a Starbucks (We Think) and have a spot for one other business, too!

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.

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.
