Yeah, there's an ad in the current NWA Business Journal for Twin Creeks Village Medical Park at Gregg and Van Asche. Looks like it might be big development with multiple buildings.

That's strange. A couple of weeks ago, I was on the bike trails and saw the sign for Twin Creeks Village. It showed a mixed use development including retail, office, restaurant spaces and a bank.

Yes, i saw that also. I think the medical park will just take the area close to Gregg and Van Asche and the rest will be dveloped as more mixed use.

I'm not sure if the section Mith was taling about across the creek is even considered part of Twin Creeks- it might be named something entirely different.

Ah, thanks for the info!

I was on the Scull Creek Trail near that area and saw all the dirt being turned up right behind the building that's on Steele.  I don't recall seeing any signs up or anything though.

Been forgetting to mention this.  I've noticed some ground work being done on the south side of Van Asche right next to the Scull Creek Trail.  Not sure if there's plans for anything immediate, or if developers are just wanting that spot ready since it looks like the economy is starting to turn around.
On a side note, can't remember if I ever mentioned this either.  But I noticed some building being done across the street from Shogun just north of the previous spot mentioned.  Looks like another strip mall type development right there with the others in that area.

According to the Technical Plat agenda, Fayetteville will be getting an Academy Sports and Outdoor Store in the "Uptown" area.  I'm not sure exactly where yet but it said lot 9A of the CMN Business Park, I have not had time to find a plat.  I would guess somewhere around the Razorback 16.  The lot is just under 15 acres and the store will be around 71,500 sq feet I believe.

This has been cooking for a while, but by no means done. The area is next to the theater, but that lot is also in a flood zone, meaning it will be very expensive after the purchase to develop. Good catch and great news. Surprised though, as it will no doubt impact the Rogers store.

Maybe they think the area is big enough to support two locations.  As far as the location, seems like there's plenty of land available in that general area.  Granted other plots of land very well could also be in the flood plain as well.  But you'd think there's a decent location somewhere in that area.

Good to hear that's one of the few Benton County stores that I miss not having locally.

Anyone know what's going on with the former Circuit City building?  They've stripped off the old fascia.

In one of the other topics it was posted that it would be a mattress store- I think it was Mattress City.

I've noticed some initial ground work happening in the lot just south of the Razorback Malco, between Malco and the Mud Creek Trail.  Has anyone heard anything about what could be happening there?

[zman9810]

I think that is where Academy Sports is going in. There was some concern about part of it being in the flood plain but I guess they worked it out.

That's right, thanks for reminding me!
