Whats a free standing area?

Chris Shasho said...

That means it is not inline with other stores. It stands alone like a McDonald's on a separate site.

Unknown said...

Ok cool. So there making the donuts on site like the one in va?

Saints Alive, this is dangerous news.

Unknown said...

Wondering if it will replace the Dunkin Donuts . . .

Unknown said...

There IS a GOD!!...and this is proof he loves me.

Unknown said...

That's fantastic news
It's about freaking time a Krispy Kreme came to town. FINALLY!!!

Unknown said...

MY 2 ALL TIME FAVE DONUTS. NO OFFENSE TO ANYONE WHO LIKES DD BUT ME SORRY TO SAY NEVER A FAN. JUST SAYING. KK DONUTS ROCK

If its Pinefield South, its the same shopping center that Leftys BBQ is located in. There's a vacant spot where Waku Chicken was located, wouldn't surprise me if it is going in there.

The folks running the Duncan Donuts across the street can't be thrilled at having another donut shop opening so close, but that's how it goes.

Unknown said...

This is great news. The next closest ones were at least 30 minutes away on a good day.

To be trendy, I will be forming a diabetics march to protest the opening to this establishment.

Lol lol☺

I hope its a small store, Parking is limited at that location. I guess Dunkin' Donuts is toast.

OrangeLady said...

I will be looking for the Hot doughnut sign daily...LOL

Kelli Price said...

😂😂😂😂😂

Unknown said...

How about a Sugar Shack or Duck Donuts??? KK is good but DD has better coffee.

Awesome response!!!

Chris have you any information about Amazon building a distribution warehouse in White Plains?

Chris Shasho said...

They are not going in white plains. That's all I can say.

Sweet Mary Mother of Joseph !!!!!! this is the best news all year

Jordans Memory said...

I can't tell you how long I been waiting for this! I was mortified to hear they built one in Capitol Heights instead of here in Charles County, no offense but Charles County is much more of an desirable area so we should have the goodies first! I don't think DD will be affected because I think most people go there for the food (breakfast) and coffee instead of their doughnuts. I actually forget they sell doughnuts! But on the downside this will make my diet even more of a struggle since they built the Sonic in Laplata and now this! Pray for me people!!!!

Hi Chris,

I notice in Waldorf on 301 South where RIPS restaurant and hotel was along with a gas station that recently closed, demolition of those two sites are starting. Do you know what the development plans are for that location?

Also, on 301 South across from the Kia Dealership, the old Shell station building is being demolished too. Do you know what the plans are for that location?

And..what is going in Brandywine at the Cadillac Motel? Are they developing that too?

A large portion of land was bought that includes the motel, chaney building and a few other properties. It will be redeveloped into new retail and maybe some residential.

I do not know if there is a tenant yet for the old gas station.

There will be a new supermarket, best western and some other retail at the Cadillac motel site.

Mary Liberati said...

I am protesting your protest. I will pay your mother to protest with me because that is how protests are organized now. Lol

Frank Godfrey said...

Joy! As a local Realtor, this is good news. Thanks.

Bill said...

Do you guys know why tenants haven't move on the old lonestar in the st. Charles mall parking lot ?

Chris Shasho said...

It needs a ton of work on the inside. Around $700,000 worth. Vandals got in there a few years ago and stole all the copper.

Anonymous said...

Anyone heard if a Harris Teeter or Wegmans is interested in a Charles County location? Rumors have said one or both were interested -- that was about 6 months ago. ???

Anonymous said...

no, that is in the pinefield center, the pinefield south is over where dollar general is, bet its taking over that chicken place

Chris Shasho said...

KK is not taking over Chicken Rico. It will be on its own pad site.

No wegmans for Charles County.

Anonymous said...

I am so disappointed to hear no wegmans..I live in Charles County and travel to the wegmans in landover. Could you please tell me why we aren't getting one? Thank you

Anonymous said...

Nope, will be where they tearing the building doen next to sonic

Anonymous said...

Theres one coming to Lexington Park also

Chris Shasho said...

I just had lunch with the Shopping center manager yesterday and he pointed to the site in his parking lot where KK was going to go. They bought the site from him.

Chris Shasho said...

Wegmans is not coming because we do not have enough people to support it during lunchtime. They have hot bars, etc. that is a big business for them, and our lunch crowd is too small because we have so many people that leave the area for work.

Wendy Bentley said...

Could you please update if you find out about the potential St Marys location?

Unknown said...

Maybe I'm thinking of the wrong location. Is not a Dunkin Donuts already there?

Chris Shasho said...

Dunkin is on other side of the road.

Unknown said...

What's the news on a KK coming to St. Mary's?? I hope this happens. I drive to Fredericksburg which is a hike if I have the taste for fresh KK. 🙏🏻🙏🏻

Anonymous said...

Nope. It's going in front of Lefty's where he said it's going.

Anonymous said...

That's ok. Dunkin Donuts isn't all that good anyway and too expensive. Donut Connection is where it's at!

Anonymous said...

How far north will the western parkway extend to?

Unknown said...

I am bringing roof material to that job tonight

Juice said...

With all the new establishments coming into Southern Maryland how about while lobbying for these newcomers we put together BETTER sites for them to operate. We as customers of these business we would like to see better layouts etc.....Skyzone - great place bad location, parking is atrocious, KK - great place bad location too small AGAIN foreseen parking issues. Just saying for future family establishments please plan for the usages.......Chuckie Cheese got a great location but just think those kids grow up then where do they go when everything is so crowded you can get in?

Opening date available?

Chris Shasho said...

Mid October.

Unknown said...

Went to krispy today and it was temporarily closed
What's up with that

Anonymous said...

So, where is our Krispy Kreme for Lexington Park/California? It is almost 2019 and still nothing...

Chris Shasho said...

It vanished. They still want to be down there but have made no movement that I have heard.
