Syracuse (WSYR-TV) - What's in Store around Central New York? Among other things, a new pizza shop, laundromat and dollar-store.
We've got answers to your What's in Store questions from Bridgeport, Central Square, and along new court avenue, near Lyncourt...let's start in Bridgeport.
In the Madison County Town of Bridgeport, we've heard from people asking what's in store at the intersection of routes 31 and 298. The framing is up, and work will continue through the winter on three new developments there. It will become a brand new Colonial Laundromat, an Original Italian Pizza shop, and a new Dollar General store.
Colonial is developing the site, and Colonial's Tim O'Connell says this will be his firm's 31st laundromat. O' C onnell says he expects the Dollar General will open first, probably in April, followed closely by the new laundromat and Original Italian Pizza shop.
In Central Square, just behind the school district offices, a new building has sprung up, replacing an old garage that served the district's buildings and grounds operations. It's a brand new garage that serves the same purpose. It's the exact same size as the old garage, and cost about $140,000 to build.
It was part of a $12 million package of renovations approved by Central Square voters a few years back. Many who live in the district may have forgotten the project was part of the same spending package that also brought new soccer fields to the middle school.
On New Court Avenue in DeWitt, next to the popular "No-Name Diner," a storage facility and private office building are going up. DeWitt town development boss Dick Raub says the building will be a good fit for this Commercial and Business Avenue that borders a residential neighborhood behind New Court Ave.
