Charlotte Hall Safeway and Retail Center

The 17 acre development with Safeway as the anchor I blogged about a few months ago is about 4 months or so away from start of construction. It will be located in Charlotte Hall, MD between Golden Beach Road and the 7-11 and across the street from the McDonalds. Safeway Staore Front

Apparently, Tidewater Veterinary Hospital will be relocated about 600 yards away in a new state of the art building. Access to Tidewater Vet will move from Route 5 to Charlotte Hall Road or Golden Beach Road.

I spoke to the developer this morning, Ray Mertz, about the project. Other tenants are expected to lease space soon. He said we'll start seeing signs and heavy advertising in the near future. I'll post updates like store design, additional businesses, etc... as I get them.

Hey Cynthia,

We live in a fairly rural area and are somewhat suspicious of development. I do think this project will be welcomed as it is being built in a location that already services commercial and retail needs.

I think most people will embrace another grocery store. It'll give folks an additional choice and generally speaking, we're ready for more quality products and services. My blog stats show people are landing on my blog *daily* from Google searches like "Hughesville area grocery stores" or "new Safeway in Charlotte Hall" or something similar.

My original blog post on the new Safeway in Charlotte Hall has just about the highest hit count on all my blogs. So, yes I think people are excited, albeit privately.
