New roof going. New wiring. I think A&A Nails Supply shut down in 2023.

So far, I only see an electrical permit related to the HVAC system, and a plumbing permit related to the Fire Sprinkler system.

They are also in the former No Frills in CB.

They finally remove the A&A Nails Supply sign off the building.

Was A&A a legit business or a front for something else? Never saw any cars there.

I'm really looking forward to something good happening here. This mall has been in decay since before No Frills left.

They've had a few locations. 90th & Grant, 80th & Blondo, and now their website says their address is some residential address off 184th & F.

I always thought Asian Market should move here and create a whole Asian plaza like in other major cities. Grocery store, restaurants, shops, salon, real estate/insurance, etc.

That's an interesting idea. Though I don't think that would beat their current location as far as being directly in the thick of it. That would be a good considerable location if they outgrew their current building. I would actually like it quite a lot. Good idea.

The No-Frills was one of my grocery stores growing up, so it would be nice to see that kind of life breathed back into that building, and actually be able to go back in it once again, or rather, have a reason to.

You’d figure they could nail down a location…

I just made a note the other day since it was my first time by this plaza since I had knowledge of a transfer here. I have no clue what Retail Rebel is, what they sell, how they sell it. Given the name, that doesn't scream legitimacy to me, but I had to do a double take, because that was the first time I saw the parking lot full and people walking in and out of that building for the first time in over a decade. Its something. I'd still rather it be a grocery store, or a hardware store, or just some place I'd have reason to patronize. For now its good to see some life there.

ISn't there a Retail Rebel in CB?

I believe that this is a business that buys returned goods by the pallet and resells by the item. Often Amazon items

There is one that opened a few months ago in Fremont that is named Deals 4 Days. Never been there but the business model is to be open a few days a week and each day the price categories get lower. Then they close for maybe three days and restock

Retail Rebel Announced there closing this one and the Council Bluffs store.

Great, time to level that entire plaza and gas station. Start over with a clean slate.
