Harris Teeter in Maple Lawn

Brent from the HowChow blog emailed me yesterday asking if I knew what was going on with the Harris Teeter store in Maple Lawn. “Someone is writing comments on HowChow and elsewhere that Harris Teeter has decided not to open the store in Maple Lawn.”

I called my main Maple Lawn man, Chuck Breitenother at KLNB to see if he could shed some light on the situation.

“They just decided to push the opening back to the fourth quarter of this year,” he told me.

The store is essentially ready to go. All of the store fixtures are installed, the parking lot lighting is in and the spaces are striped. The physical plant is fully operational. All the store needs is food and employees. It now appears that those will be added just in time for Thanksgiving and Christmas.
