People keep saying “retail center” and that is not accurate. I have been to the neighborhood meetings as I live a block away. They are planning one use – grocery. Yes a fourth grocery store in four blocks and the neighborhood is not pleased. They will be gutting the two story building and making it one story with underground parking and they will also be building a separate building to possibly hold a restaurant / cafe – hardly a “retail center.” Just another big box store that will be impossible to re-rent if it doesn’t survive.

Whole Foods coming to the Carytown area would boost shopping in Carytown. People will come to shop at Whole Foods, but will spend time in Carytown shopping on the same trip. We all now travel to “Short Pump” to go to Whole Foods and spend money in the surrounding stores. Let’s make it more convenient to spend our money close by.

If Whole Foods really is going to come to this location, it seems like complete overkill, given the proximity to Ellwood Thompson. People like Gwyn should have been shopping there anyway. Why drive across town for the same/similar items? Support your local mom & pops, before they aren’t there for you.

The word is that walmart wants to put in one of their neighborhood markets. Not that we don’t already have three grocery stores, two pharmacies(used to be three) and two convenience stores within a three block radius. It will take some organization of our concerns to stop them.

Gwyn – Rather than traveling to Short Pump to go to Whole Foods, save a little gas (and support a local business) by shopping at Ellwood Thompson’s.
