Just have ooshwa set up a DB for me and I'll get each one entered. Then we can run it to show new info, alphabetical info, chronological info, etc. We'll make it a feature of MyBCS.

Here's a link to the new indoor bouncy place opening on Harvey. The site just says they'll open in September but since they're taking birthday party resevervations for late September it should open soon.

I talked to the guy that runs the 99 cent store in Bryan today and he said that the College Station one will be open next month. It will be in the Toys R Us center.

Was out running errands today and noticed a few things, such as the permanent Atami sign at University Towne Center and new additions to the North Park Plaza in Bryan (Teriyaki Park Plus & La Riviera). Updated the list with this info as well as the 99cent stuff.

More development in Bryan:

Boonville Town Center, between McCoy's and Tom Light Chevrolet. The plans have no building sites as of yet, but show Austin's Colony Parkway being extended from Boonville Rd. (FM 158) to the feeder road:

Sign on Texas Ave says Kohl's is opening Sept. 30 w/ Grand Opening Oct. 3. Hopefully I'm not the Last Person on Earth to Figure That Out.

Also: went by Gattiland (CS) yesterday and it's open. Didn't someone post on this thread or another that it was closed/closing/for lease?

You can remove this one. Trust me on this.

Again, great work on the summary. It just keeps getting better and better.

Nothing gets removed (though maybe I should eventually start an archive of stuff that was coming and has opened or was coming and got shelved (IPC, Boonville Station, etc.) to keep the list clean.

I did update IPC's entry, though. As well as Kohl's.

It doesn't fit the 'business' section - but there is a new traffic light location at the Walmart in Bryan.

For those that care.

I'm hearing that both Wal-Mart and Lowe's have pulled out of the Tower Point project at Green's Prairie and 6. Trying to nail down something more.

Lowe's has a contract in to go on the Northeast corner of Greens Prarie and 6, right behind the McDonald's-Exxon

St. Joe's is having a ground breaking ceremony on the NE corner of 6 and Fitch today or tomorrow, big tent setup, etc.

Don't know if there is room for a Lowes and St. Joe's, but I would welcome Lowes.

Also glad to hear about Walmart pulling out of the NW corner, I would rather have an HEB or Super Target.

Lowe's and St. Joes are going on the NEC. Wal*Mart is officially on hold for the NWC.

The developer (of the NWC) is saying that he is working with HEB, but HEB is saying that they are 3-4 years away from putting another store in the market. I tend to believe HEB over the developer.

I don't think that Target would open two new stores in BCS so close together.

Tried looking throug the summary but didn't find any info.

What is going in just north of Olive Garden? Looks likey they are preparing a couple spots.

St Joe's is locating slightly North of Lowe's. Lowe's is on a different parcel.

NTB (National Tire and Battery) is going just North of Olive Garden

Nothing on the list about it. I noticed the clearing last week, but the only signs I saw said that the land was for sale. Maybe Chip or rcj knows?

Chip, any ETA on that Lowes? I'll wait another 3 years for a HEB over a Wal-Mart...

HEB is still at least two years from a store opening in south CS. Right now, odds are it will be at RP/6.

Even the folks at HEB haven't decided where and when.

HEB execs were scheduled to tour several locations in CS, but the trip was cancelled because of the hurricane that was suppose to hit south Texas.

They were here.

Hopefully you were just joking. It's a 30 min jet ride from SA. They weren't even gone a half day.

One of the severs at Cafe Eccell told me that the steakhouse was pretty far behind becasue of material shortages. They are thinking a Jan-Feb opening now.
