Someone was saying it was going to be a Scooters Coffee. But I have not seen any confirmation on that
Researching both the owner (EJP III REAL ESTATE) and the owner address, I keep coming back to Handy Marts and gas stations (and EJ Pope Transport, which transports gasoline to gas stations).
Thanks, that's kinda what I thought. I've seen the rumors about a Scooter's Coffee, but never believe anything until there's proof.
Oh, but the other owner of the property (CWE-2 LLC) built a Dollar General in Rocky Mount. Sooo... Edit: Just remembered there's already a Dollar General nearly across the street from this location. So I guess my point is: These two companies aren't associated with anything I'd be excited to see in the area. I guess we'll see.
My wife was right, the woods across Cornwallis from "Go play outside now" and to east of Old Drug store has been cut down.
All that land is owned by the guy with that tiny house on the farm on Old Drug Store Rd. I don't see anything about subdividing it, so maybe he's just selling the timber.
Joco permit number is 217520, still no more info than above. GC sign out front mainly does convenience stores.
The Wawa across from Old Drug Store and Veteran's Parkway is coming together! I stopped and talked to someone working on it (he didn't look busy), and he said it should be open before July 4th. Once this is open, they'll start on the Selma store. Then once that is done, they'll come back to build the one across from Wal-Mart.
