No Big Box Going Here

Allandale Veterinary Clinic, a small liquor store, and possibly a restaurant, a fabric store or a retail store specializing in Dining Interiors are tenants planned for the new retail center going in at 6800 Burnet Rd. The land, just across from Curras and Roger Beasley Mazda was formerly occupied by Bishop's Automotive, and before that, Holiday House. It's been vacant since November 2003 and recently razed. The local developer, Sam Buford, has been working  on plans for the development since that time. Construction will begin before year end with the first tenants moving in by April or May of 2006. There are a number of car lots up and down Burnet. Roger Beasley will soon be opening a Mitsubishi dealership where his Mazda dealership was. A retail center amidst the group will be a welcomed change.
