New MedStar Medical Building Coming to Waldorf

Since this is a large project I figure it needed its own separate post.

MedStar Shah Medical Group is currently removing the building at the corner of Crain Highway and St. Patrick's Drive for a new three story 51,000 sf state of the art facility.  It will house a walk in clinic, cancer center, pharmacy, medical specialists, surgical specialists, and also diagnostic services.
We look forward to its completion and the many specialties it will bring to help the surrounding community.

July Updates

 Happy July! Hope you are enjoying the summer.  It's been a little quiet but there is still lots of projects in the works.  

If you want to see something in the area please contact that company and let them know you want them here!  They need to hear from the consumer more than anything.

One other thing.  Tip your servers!!  The wage for tipped employees is $3.63 per hour in Maryland.  They make less than minimum wage and depend on tips to live.  I speak to restaurant servers all the time and its shameful the stories I hear about people running up tabs and leaving next to nothing.  Please think about that before you go out.

Since I get asked about certain markets and restaurants so much Its time to dust off this post I did to give an understanding of why some places are not here:
