I don't think it will have much of a negative impact other than an increase of traffic on 55, which will hopefully be offset when the 540 extension to Holly Springs is scheduled to open around the same time as Parkside Town Commons.

I think Parkside Town Commons will be a few years after the 540 extension opens. Progress on 540 is visibly moving forward whereas nothing is happening just yet for Parkside. It will make a massive improvement to the West Cary infrastructure when parkside opens so lets hope work starts soon
So I decided to e-mail the developer and ask for a status on this project. Obviously due to the economy this project was pushed back, however they are actively working on anchor tenant leasing. They've tentatively secured the following anchor tenants: Target, Frank Theaters, Petsmart and Staples. I think I also read that Massage Envy has also tentatively leased space.
They're now targeting a mid to late 2012 opening. Should be a very exciting addition to the area once this opens.
So everyone get's excited about a bunch of already existing in the area stores and yet more overpriced trashy housing cramming in on an already overtraveled HWY 55? Given the overabundance of Commercial Property sitting empty, the bankruptcy's and the lagging home market it just makes great sense to press forward with this!
Thanks for encouraging the idiots to make my commute even worse.
They need to do more than just a train bridge at the Carpenter Fire Station/Morrisville Carpenter/HWY 55 intersection if they want Carpenter Fire Station road to be a major east/west thoroughfare.
The Carpenter Fire Station/HWY 55 intersection is terrible. Was crossing over HWY55 there last night and the car in front of me was a couple of feet away from being T-boned by a southbound Jeep on HWY 55 (Jeep did not even think about stopping).
I think the issue is still the closing of the railroad crossing.
