Will be a new North 90th St. development on the west side between NAPA Auto Parts and Fantasy's.

I want to go back in time and perform a post-natal abortion on whoever thought 'shoppes', 'centre', and 'towne' made simple things look classy. It |expletive| doesn't and those words are the bane of my existence.

I mean 'centre' is the appropriate way to spell 'center' as it is proper english for every other english speaking country in the world as well as for those who learn english as a second language. And in regards to 'Shoppe', we just use it wrong and it does have an appropriate way to be used but we Americans butchered the english language and use it because it sounds fancy lol. In reality it is supposed to be used in reference to a store that has old-fashioned charm and quaintness...not some new shopping center. I will agree though, 'towne' is ridiculous.

If there was a *heart* emoticon, I'd use it right now.

This development and the name "Shpopes at Loreto" aren't really new so to speak. The plat for The Fantasy's gas station was done back in 2007 or 2008 and the retail building was part of the plan all along. I think eventually the retail portion became a victim of the recession and was eventually put on hold and only the gas station was built.
