Hwy 176 Near Cane Bay (Summerville: 2010, house, new construction)

[pokrplr]

I have a question about growth in that area. Since we moved to Cane Bay I keep seeing new areas being constructed/developed, the most recent glaring one is on 17A and Carnes Crossroads. I have combed the Interned and found that a company from Charlotte, Lincoln Harris is developing this area. I did speak w/ several people in charge of the project but they could not give more specific details as to what is coming to that area. Here's the link to their newest shopping center http://www.lincolnharris.com/Properties/PropertyDetails.aspx?KEY=165

So my question is, does anyone know what the Grocery Store is going to be? Supposedly this information was leaked out a few weeks ago. I am hoping our resident realtors would know this info?

Thanks for any responses...

I heard it was a Publix ( but it may only be a rumour).

When we visited the Del Webb at Cane Bay community last October, we were told that it was 90% settled that it would be a Publix.

Hmmm I wonder if they will close the one that is about 3 or 4 miles from 17A? I hope not because it's close to my house. lol

Pokrpir,

Remember me? Stella from Cape Cod, MA moving into Del Webb?
We are in Temp housing in Summerville at Del Webb's expense since our house wasn't finished on time. We left MA Dec 17th and have been homeless since. Will be moving in around Feb 21st.

How do you like living in Cane Bay? We pass your development everytime we go to Del/Webb. Would be great if it were a Publix (I like that store) Where do you shop now. Publix or Bi Low?

I'm not familiar with either Publix or Bi-Low. How are they price-wise in comparison to Wal-Mart's Grocery Dept?

Hi Stella! Yes I remember you (Redsox fan, lol)...I SOO know the temp housing deal, we did it too and it stinks! Look @ the brightside you have less than one more month to go. Bet you can't wait. We are enjoying our home, still working out the kinks as there always seems to be some w/ new construction. I drove by DW the other day and was shocked as to how many homes were up. Its really starting to shape out there. I hope that the grocery store is a Publix, I finally got in touch w/ the developer and he knows which one it is, just cant say right now. He told me to give him about 2 more weeks before they make their official announcement. He also said that it would be 2nd qtr of 2010 before it opens
As for now we go to Publix in goose creek, its if I remember right 11 or 12 miles from here. Since it's kinda a hike we make sure to load up. I'm sure the BiLo is closer but the quality of food is WAY better @ pub's...

VAMT - As for price comparison vs. Wally World (Walmart) there really is None. Probably on 99% of things WM are cheaper, however, its the quality of food that brings us to Publix and the enviroment. IE: Bakery (Closest bread to NY), Deli again same reasons, Meat and Produce Dept hands down better quality & selection.
AND, No disrespect to anyone with this comment but I feel like I'm the only English speaking person when I'm @ WM so I do try and avoid...

Thanks for the grocery store input. Here in the sticks we only have Wal-Mart or Food Lion to choose from. The english speaking part is not an issue here.

Agree with the Publix. Have gone there several times. Have gone to Bi Lo but also like Publix better. 2 years seem like a long time for a supermarket but I'm sure it will go fast.

We are anxious to move into our house. If you go to Del/Webb you can see a few house further out than the rest. We are on Billowing Sails St. The house will be finished soon but it's the water connection, so we are going to use that time to paint inside and get our window treatments measured.

Have to admit, Del/Webb couldn't be nicer. there are 5 of us in the same situation so we try to support one another. Just hope it's not going to go into March.
