Anybody caught drift of anything? I really hope this storefront gets a new tenant before too long. | ||

Fury 13..... ....only if Cindy Bowers returns to work at the concession stand. Well, maybe not. She and I were both 17 at the time, and that was 42 years ago...... | ||

As long as it is another Chain, I will be happy. Detroit deserves nothing more. | ||

I thought someone said it was closing Old Navy Outlet to reopen as an Old Navy. | ||
Mrsjdaniels Member Username: Mrsjdaniels Post Number: 299 Registered: 08-2005 |
if they are to reopen as an Old Navy, I can't see why they took out the innards...its the same no matter where you shop. Bow Old Navy is doing away with Old Navy Outlets as a whole, but to me, it'd seem silly to border it up and give a complete explanation | ||

"As long as it is another Chain, I will be happy. Detroit deserves nothing more." Ahem, 9 Mile and Woodward isn't Detroit. | ||

You are right Drise, and I thought this was a Ferndale forum as the website name suggests. | ||

^^^Well, I got what you were saying (Metro Detroit). You were just trying to save words. I just wanted to point it out :-) | ||

Something like this????  | ||
Johnlodge Member Username: Johnlodge Post Number: 3672 Registered: 10-2003 |
LOL, that Pyang hotel is a hot item on the forums this week. No, it will not reopen as a regular Old Navy. That rumor has been debunked. Woodward Talk had a story that specifically addressed that, and said the landlord was going to do some work on the building before getting a new tenant in. I have noticed all the lights inside on at night lately. | ||

I'd guess another night club/bar. Prime location and plenty of similar business in the area. | ||

A dollar store or check-cashing store. | ||
Detroitrise Member Username: Detroitrise Post Number: 720 Registered: 09-2007 |
Dollar Tree or Family Dollar will snatch it up (if Citi Trends Doesn't). | ||
Johnlodge Member Username: Johnlodge Post Number: 3695 Registered: 10-2003 |
There's already a dollar type store in downtown Ferndale. And I'm guessing the rent at that prime location will exceed what a dollar store typically likes to pay. Plus Ferndale is very keen on getting something good in that spot, for what that's worth. | ||

Piggly Wiggly supermarket! It would be ideal for a small market. | ||
Detroitrise Member Username: Detroitrise Post Number: 732 Registered: 09-2007 |
^^^OOO, wow! While we're dreaming, it would be nice if Publix, Safeway, Albertsons, and what not opened in Detroit! | ||

It's not a good site for a supermarket because you have to pay to park there. | ||

Totally unsubstantiated rumor around town that it WILL be a Borders. Just throwing that out there, but don't take it as fact. | ||
Crawford Member Username: Crawford Post Number: 167 Registered: 10-2006 |
Borders has completely shut down its new store openings because of its massive financial problems. They aren't signing any new leases. In fact, they are backing out of all existing leases for stores that have not yet opened. Barnes & Noble is expanding, but they already have a huge store a mile north in Royal Oak. | ||

Well maybe that Florida Borders was too far along to cancel. They have a current freeze on new stores. | ||
