Staples left.

Then, the A & N store closed.

Now, with Texas Steakhouse & Saloon still there, a local shopping center is being revamped with a facelift and updated sign in the parking lot.

Construction at Madison Square Shopping Center Along Electric Road (3/23/08)

It’s all happening at Madison Square Shopping Center on Electric Road around the 4100 block (across the street from the Shell Gas Station).

Staples ended up moving to Tanglewood Mall (which I think is slightly less convenient), but I believe the A & N store just closed altogether. This relatively small shopping center has been there as long as I can remember. The Madison Square sign in the parking lot, which displays store names, is currently blank but has a max of 4 spaces available. And hopefully it will acquire some adequate tenants and be back in full business in the near future.

Construction Sign at Front of Madison Square Shopping Center (3/23/08)

For the moment there are only those construction/real estate signs in the front facing Electric Road, but I’ll keep an eye on it and post with new information a little later.
