New Shops To Come To Greenbelt And Berwyn Heights

The Gazette reports new and expanded shops are soon to arrive at the Greenbelt and Berwyn Heights shopping centers.

Businesses go and businesses come in Greenbelt and Berwyn Heights as shopping center owners seek to stave off the effects of the recession by filling store vacancies and maintain a healthy retail presence in the two municipalities.

Greenbelt’s Greenway Center will see some new businesses as well as expansion of some existing businesses within the next two months. In March, Dollar Tree will occupy the former 10,000 square foot Pier 1 space in Greenway Center, said Linda Dreyer, a marketing manager at Combined Properties, the management and leasing company of the joint businesses located in Greenway Center. Pier 1 closed in early 2009.

For Eyes Optical, a center fixture since the early 1990s, is moving to a larger space in the center.

Beltway Plaza will also increase its retail presence with the addition of Shoppers World, a discount department store, which will have a soft opening on Feb. 15 and a grand opening on March 1. Shoppers World will occupy 70,000 square foot of the former Value City Department Store, which closed in November 2008 and had a total of 110,000 square foot.
