<div><font face="Geneva" size="-1" color="#000000">I was stocking up
yesterday at the Big Bad Woof in Takoma Park/DC in an attempt to get
get ahead of the imminent global economic collapse, and asked when
they would be opening in Hyattsville. First or second week in
August at the latest, I think, though I was so excited, I may have
gotten the date wrong! They are upscale, but my German Shepherd
Rescue dog just turned 13 years old last week, and I am so grateful to
this and other local merchants who stock the items that are keeping
her spry and chipper at such an ancient age -- and also helping to
keep my veterinarian bills very, very low. It would be wonderful
if they were opening in Riverdale Park Town Center, but it seems that
was not meant to be. Maybe something else will open here
soon. Maybe a week-long Farmer's Market shop like at
Eastern Market. Or not. I love my town, and its Town
Center -- even half empty!</font></div>

I will tell you that the pet store (upscale) was on Twitter mentioning
the purchasing they are doing for the Hyattsville store. My guess is
probably early August, but they seem on track for opening soon.<br>
<br>
And I like your way of thinking....<br>

Also, supposedly the Tara Thai restaurant and the new pet supply store
are also due to open on the same day, though I haven't seen official
confirmation of those.<br>
<br>
Now just imagine when our trolley trail bike path is open and we can
all just cruise or stroll down to enjoy these new businesses w/o
hassling with Baltimore Ave!<br>
<br>
Now close your eyes and imagine when that same trolley trail bike path
ferries the new residents of the new residences there on Rt 1 up here
to the Farmer's Market and Town Center businesses (current and
yet-to-be!)</font></div>
