Kevin Cunningham, broker-proprietor of RE/MAX Realty 1, said he has read different occupants for vendors at the proposed Beverly Hills Crossing but there have been no organization commitments,
Why is that intersection so preferred with stores?
“It’s in the center of the county,” he stated. “If you go back again in history, when they constructed the mall in Crystal River. It was supposed to be in which the Walmart is suitable now (at that intersection). A good deal of politics was included with it and (the mall) was moved to the place it is now on U.S. 19.”
Cunningham stated yet another factor that could be driving improvement is the long run proximity to the eventual enlargement of the Suncoast Parkway from State Road 44 to County Street 486.
That 3-mile extension is funded for design in fiscal year 2023. The road is scheduled to terminate about 1,500 ft east of the Pine Ridge entrance.
The Chronicle will carry on to abide by this growth.
