December Updates

December is here!  The holidays seem to be coming faster than normal.  Be safe!  2020 will be here before we know it.

November Updates

Updated 11/19/19

Happy Holidays! The freezing cold weather is here.  I was hoping for more Fall weather first but you know how it is here.  Hope everyone has a safe month full of family and friends. When you are out there shopping please choose kindness!

Remember if you want something in your area please contact the company and tell them you want them here!

We are off to a slow start this month but lots of things in the pipeline.

LA Learning Center will be opening on December 16, 2019 at 3999 ST. Marks Drive Waldorf.
They are having two open houses:

Open house on November 22, 2019 from 3:30pm - 6:30pm.

Open house on November 23, 2019 from 11am - 2pm.

This is what they are offering for new clients: If you register on one of these two dates you will receive 50% off tuition for 4 weeks.

If you leave one of their competitors within a 5 mile radius of our school you will receive 50% off tuition for 8 weeks.

Arby's in Waldorf is working on their site plans and interior plans.  These things take time to work thru county approvals so its still in the works.


The supposed strip club in Bryans Road has been denied after it was found that they put in for a different use and then switched to the strip club.

Speaking of Bryans Road we have heard that most of the small spaces at the Bryans Road shopping center have leases pending.  The Safeway space is going to be a storage facility.
Unfortunately with the slow growth in that area its very hard to attract another grocery store.

Mezeh contacted me and said the St. Mary's Marketplace location would not open until Spring 2020.

Panera Bread will open later this month at the Landing at Woodyard in Clinton.

Chicken Rico has now reopened in Waldorf at Waldorf Shoppers World.

The Landing at Woodyard

In Clinton they have revamped the former shopping center at the corner of Woodyard Rd. and Branch Ave.  I just got a list of the tenants they have signed.  Forgive me if some of these area already existing, I don't have anything to do with this center so I'm not up to date on what's there currently.
Panera Bread, Firehouse Subs, Tropical Smoothie Cafe, Chick fil A, Marco's Pizza, Quickfire Japanese Hibachi.

Hope that makes the Clinton fans happy.  The center looks much better after the remodel.  Hope all the tenants have great success.  Updates as I see them.
