Wendbus is Wendy's selling their buildings and/or re-financing their buildings.

Columbus Center, LLC may be the land that they're clearing next to Welcome Center, Nursing Home, I think?

GMC Partners is the new Georgia Military College on Blackmon Rd.

Capstone to Woodruff is the office lofts that they're building by CB&T on River Rd

Is the nursing home the Muscogee Manor or is that something else?

Lately, utility lines have been going in at the old Swift site in Midland. Rumor is that Bass Pro is coming. Any word on that?

Yes, looks like it's Muscogee Manor.

Construction has also started on the $9-million dollar recycling center for Columbus.

Not sure on the Bass Pro, looking into it.

I thought Gander Mountain was coming to the new center at CPC. They are building in Opelika instead. Is Columbus missing the boat? The Brickyard in PC, the Courtyard by Marriott Conference Center at 14th in PC, Riverchase interchange, etc. And Opelika moving fast on retail development??

[samrcemtp]

I thought Gander Mountain was going to be an anchor at the proposed new development in CPC, but they announced a new $8 million store in Opelika. Is Columbus missing the boat here? It appears that Phenix City, Opelika, and Auburn are moving rapidly ahead of us.

[Columbus1984]

I am sure both markets can support one. I doubt the store in Opelika has nothing to do with the Columbus one. The CPC expansion is still in the "sign-up" phase from what I hear.

I see dirt is starting to move next to Mongos on veterans pkwy. There has been a sign up for years for veterans commons. Is this finally moving forward?

That would be nice! I thought I saw something on city data but I could be wrong. Check out this site, there is a lot of activity on Columbus there.

Okay.. update time.

construction will start soon on Lakeside Village behind Chick-fil-a.. East (on the right) will be built first, and West (directly behind chick-fil-a) will be built 2nd.

Woodruff has also pulled the trigger on Old Town... heavy equipment has arrived and started to move dirt.

There is a small strip center that has just started construction on Bascom Court - this is right behind Willy T's.

another frozen yogurt place is coming to town, they're opening in 3-4 weeks on Broadway next to Big Dog Running Company.

Also, some of you talked about the construction going on by Mongo... that's an O'riley's Auto Parts.

Any word on the tenants that will be coming to these projects?

Looks like a Bojangles restaurant is being built on schomburg rd.

[Columbus1984]

Where are they building it on Schomberg?

Where are they building it on Schomberg?

Next to Zaxby's.

[Columbus1984]

Any word on anything new? Area around Northside is being cleared fast.

[Sonofagun112]

Ok. I know this has been rumored for some time but a buddy of mine was at Bass Pro in Macon recently an was told we won't be waiting much longer for a store here. I'm not sure if this was just idle talk but I also heard from a realtor that there are plans for a super target in the midland area. I also heard this before. Not sure if any of it is true but they did not spend money demolishing the old swift mill for nothing.

Any idea on the location?
