The Avenue - Store Begin To Open

[Relient J]

My wife and I tonight visited the three stores now open in The Avenue lifestyle shopping center. We started with Best Buy, the store that I have been eagerly waiting for above all others, and of course I spent some money. The two employees I encountered were very friendly. We also wandered down to Off Broadway Shoes and then to Dick's Sporting Goods. It was really good to actually enter The Avenue parking lot after so many months of watching the construction progress. I'd love to hear other people report on their impression of the stores. Perhaps we can use this thread to discuss the shopping center as more stores open.

My husband and I visited the new Best Buy yesterday. Although they

didn't have a big selection of what we were looking for (office chair/furniture), it really had

a tremendous selection of everything electronical you could ever want - something

Murfreesboro was in desperate need of. We were amazed at just how

gorgeous this new area is turning out, as we normally only see the view of it from I-24.

It really seems like the planning and care put into making the Avenues feel

upscale comes across very well, when it is completed, this will be one

massive draw for Murfreesboro. I really like the ability to park right next to only the

stores you want to go in, as opposed to a regular "mall" where you have to walk and walk to find the few stores you

want to go in. We can't wait for more of the stores to open -

I have a feeling this will be a shopping area we will visit regularly!
