Plattsburgh ? (Champlain, Burlington, Hope: Home Depot, store, beach)

Hey neighbors across the lake...any word on when your new Target will open?A very important question

[plattsburgher]

Yes, it is a burning question, isn't it? They had been working on the foundation area up until December and the last I heard it will be summer 08 before it opens, but you know how that goes.........Other HOT news is that we are getting a Walgreens (like we need another drug store chain), and that Home Depot is going to give Lowes some competition in 2009. IMO, the very best news for the Burgh in 2007 was the airline that goes direct to Ft Lauderdale. I am booked for a week in Feb and with the cold snap coming in tomorrow............cannot wait for a warm beach week!!!!!!

This PR story, from the groundbreaking last June, says October 2008.

For what it's worth, it looks like they've done a lot of work already.

You guys don't have Home Depot? Our very first Lowe's (front page news over here LOL) finally opened Thursday. A bunch of your Plattsburgh employees are over here helping out! Thanks for the update and I'll see you over there when Target opens

Plattsburgher, which airline goes directly to P'burgh from Ft. Lauderdale? I'm looking for a flight this spring/summer and would rather go there and into Burlington. Thanks!

nomoresnow,
You can find it at www.Allegiantair.com.
(Hope it's OK I'm not Plattsburgher.)

If you are interested also in direct discount flights to warmer destinations, there will be an airline flying between Pburgh and Myrtle Beach within the next few weeks. I am tired and can't remember the name of the airline, but I think I read where it starts up in March????? Nunoco, are you out there? I can't recall specifics, but you probably have better info.............

Oh, the pressure. I couldn't remember it, either, so I looked it up. It's called, cleverly enough, Myrtle Beach Direct Air and Tours.

With temps at 8 degrees, though, and wind chills at -6, it's good to have these web addys handy!
