College Town

<p>We got a Fall news flyer from UR in the mail and it said that College Town was opening during Meliora Weekend 2014.</p>

<p><a href="http://www.collegetownrochester.com/"&gt;http://www.collegetownrochester.com/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p>

<p>I didn't see a thread on it, so I thought I'd start one. </p>

<p>Can anyone share any more information than what's presented on the website? For example, will there be more stores/restaurants opening or does the website list them all?</p>

<p>Barnes & Noble Inc., Saxbys Coffee, Insomnia Cookies, Hairzoo Inc., Jimmy Johns, Canandaigua National Bank & Trust Co., Constantino’s Market & perhaps Corner Bakery Cafe, Panini’s Bar and Grill, Moe’s Southwest Grill & Flight Wine Bar. Also perhaps a gift store called Creator’s Hands and Breathe Yoga. Not sure when these would all happen or if because leases sometimes fall apart.</p>

<p>BTW, if you didn’t know and not in walking distance, there’s now a Trader Joe’s on Monroe near Wegmans. That mean more will come. And someone, not you, asked about the McD’s across the street on Mt. Hope: it’s being rebuilt.</p>

<p>I expect this will lead to more development in that stretch because UR is the largest employer in the region. It’s tough to say the market is underserved because traffic in the area is so easy to manage, but by traditional measures for development you have a lot of jobs and money and people coming and going and nearby good income areas and not much development. </p>
