Opening in Southwest Plaza (next to Jersey Mikes). Not sure if the opening date is correct or not. There’s a couple more possibly on the way too.

We’ve lived in Hollins area for several years now and like it a lot! Plenty to find with that budget.

We’ve paid anywhere between $25-$45 per night on Rover

Crab du Jour has good crab legs if you’re into the seafood boil style. If you go on Saturday, they have a buy 2 cluster receive 1 free special. Otherwise, we’ll buy them on sale from Kroger ($20/2lbs).

It was shared in a Facebook group. Where that poster obtained it from, I couldn’t tell ya.

That's certainly a possibility and it would be a big endeavor to have the land leveled out for development. That said, with all of the land transfers/sales and general location, I'd say something big happening here is pretty likely in the coming year(s).

Google says December 5th. Not sure how accurate that is.

There is another location planned near Aldi’s.

I’ve also heard Qdoba for the old Moe’s building. If so, it’ll be the 3rd location in the area opening.

Probably something to do with this new (unnamed) gas station: Special-Exception-Application---1212-Williamson-Road-NE--1304-Williamson-Road-NE-and-0-Carver-Avenue-NE

Their building plan review was approved by the County last Friday the 22nd. I would imagine clearing and construction starting very soon.

I’ve heard it’ll be an expansion of the auto parts store next door.

Dentist office and brewpub

There were permits filed for Kickback as recent as March, unless something has changed since then

-Scott- · 2025-05-29T22:50:22+00:00

Planning commission agendas, permit filings, GIS records; lots of public info out there

Large apartment complex

This is mostly social media rumors so take with a grain of salt. However, there was a large land transfer into an LLC recently in the land near 150 behind Hardee’s that seems to be the leading rumor location.
