Couldn't find anything online but it's announced in the latest 225 magazine.

Love that Rouses is making presence in South BR but damn, the traffic is bad enough already and will not be sustainable without some improvements at the Burbank/Lee intersection.

ETA:
LINK

Also also adding a market place called Arlington that will have around 12 other shops/restaurants

Not to mention you already have Walmart and Winn Dixie in the same area. Unfortunately Winn dixie will feel the most pressure

They should never have approved all of those apartments around there. Too damn many people trying to get in an out of that area already.

What is the old shopping center on Staring? The area where Johnnys sits?

Anyway, I am just quoting 225 magazine.

I must be drawing a major blank, but where is there room to build a Rouses at the intersection of Burbank and Lee?

Right past the Popeyes if you are coming from Perkins. The entire shopping center that sits back from Staring is empty. I was told that Donnie Jarreou (sp?) was handling the Rouses going in there

Oh got it. Forgot about that area. Behind Baskin Robins and O Reillys

Man, that would be a huge upgrade to the area. Kind of shady as it is right now. A weird pocket of hood right there

That parking lot is going to be a shite show when everything is done. I welcome it though. More options almost in walking distance to my house is good.

I was told that they are going to redo that whole parking lot and expect to be able to fit in another 30+ spots. I don't know who first designed that lot but they are an idiot

I agree. Parking will probably suck during Happy Hour, around the same time Max Fitness is busy and people are stopping at Robert's after work.

There is wasted space but it's just a weird arrangement of buildings.

The cross lane area behind the salon is a mess.
