I would love to see a Tim Horton's open up around here. Whole Food's or Trader Joe's would also be great. M&M Meat shops are now in the U.S. and it would be great to have one here. I could go on and on! lol

Ha, please do, KL. Thanks for the comment!

Vegan Sweet Tooth!!!

Kohls, Old Navy, Starbucks

Would love a movie theatre on this side of town as well as a Starbucks! Please a Starbucks!!!!

Trader Joe's, Kohls, Tim Hortons, some sort of fair trade shop would be fun too.

heinens, whole foods or trader joes. What happened to high end??? Since when is pet supplies plus high end? What is going to happen to the old giant eagle on graham?

Aladdin's!

A Fresh Market would be nice! Or a Red Robin!

Great suggestions so far. Thanks, Patchers!

Cheesecake Factory!!!!

Aladdins, cheesecake factory... Really any restaurant that we dont already have locally. It's nice to have variety! There is a stir fry restaurant up in Legacy Village that is great too- I forget the name. Just bring in a variety! Please!

What's wrong with the Giant Eagle not even a quarter mile from there? Replacing one empty space by creating another. Smart

Trader Joes would be awesome...I make the hike to woodmere but love it!!!

Trader Joe's, Cheesecake Factory, Charming Charlie's...anything that's not already within a 5 mile radius!

Applebee's .... Lol

Oh I know...Walmart! Haha

Carraba's. My son wants a Game Stop

Starbuck's? Really???

What about a crocs shoe store.

With all the old folks flyin around that area on their Rascals, I would assume a farmers market or QVC outlet store would be an obvious choice.

Sheetz!!!!!!

Trader Joes, Kohls and Ikea. Nice to see B spot!

How about a great candidate to challenge Don??

I was really hoping for Whole Foods, too!!!

I'm questioning why Giant Eagle is moving across the street. Not too happy about creating another, huge, empty space. Will Get-go also be moving?

About the other big-box store, the article says it will be bigger than Giant Eagle. What don't we already have in the Chapel Hill/Stow-Kent/Montrose areas? Maybe a Costco or Ikea? I'd love to see a Fry's, but I don't think they operate this far east.

Awful! Only decent places are B Spot and Menchies..other than that I can just go 3 min down the road for the rest of them. I hope they have something else up their sleeves otherwise this project will be an epic fail. Giant Eagle is the worst idea..we need something new to bring business into the city not drive people away.

Dave and Buster's!

can ony hope the big box will be a costco

Instead of another Panera, why not an Au Bon Pain!

Maybe Marc's will move across the street. Why actually try to get new businesses in town? Shuffle them around. move Kreigers to the current Marc's building and move Goodwill to the current Giant Eagle site.

Carrabba's, Coldstone Creamery, Cracker Barrel, Au Bon Pain,Cheesecake Factory,Perkins, IHOP,B-Spot, Whole Foods, are all good ideas. So many are a bit of a drive from the area, Tallmadge, Cuy. Falls, & this side of town, not to mention Canton & Cleveland. If u put some things in there that I mentioned as well as other places that are a bit of a hike for people on this side of town, it might draw more people to it, sometimes driving to N.Canton, Ravenna,Macedonia, Montrose, Cleveland, etc can deter our decisions of where to go, or whether u can go if the weather is questionable. I ate @ the B-Spot @ Woodmere on wednesday when some gfs & I went up to Cleveland to see an art exhibit, & we all agreed its worth the trip from Akron to go back, but now that they are putting one in Cuy Falls, we could go A LOT more often!

Definitely a Trader Joes or Whole Foods! We need more real food rather than more processed, price-fixed garbage from yet another Giant Eagle that you can find around every corner. Costco and Ikea are fabulous ideas guys! It sounds like we need some variety so we don't have to travel so far. Vegan Sweet Tooth for sure Tiff! ;)

Do most of you know ANYTHING about business whatsoever?
Clearly the answer is "no".

It really is sad to see all those hoping for a Legacy Village/Crocker Park type facility. This will be another cookie cutter, suburban, run of the mill shopping center. Any hopes of it falling the other way were dashed when Pet Supplies Plus and Giant Eagle are listed as "Coming Attractions" . This really will wind up being no more than Stow Shopping Center-East when all is said and done. I was hoping for the best along with everyone else, but was fully prepared for this result.

I'm really happy to see that they are bringing life back to that abandoned lot and excited that it will generate more traffic. However, it sounds like this is beginning to look like another Chapel Hill area. All that's missing is an Applebee's and Olive Garden. We need more places like the Blue Door Cafe. Local feel and quality food.
