I am happy to report that five spaces at the Perry Hall Square Shopping Center totaling 9,500 square feet have been leased to two businesses.

Salvo Auto Parts will occupy 8,500 square feet of land, or four spaces, near The Liquor Lady at the shopping center. Shi Yogurt will occupy 1,000 square feet near the bowling alley.

Both businesses should be operational by the late spring or early summer.

I have made the revitalization of Perry Hall’s business district one of my top priorities in Perry Hall, and am excited that two job-producing businesses will be filling empty space at Perry Hall Square.  While everyone has their own wish list for what should fill Perry Hall Square, my emphasis has been filling the empty space and bringing new jobs to the shopping center.

I have remained in contact with Greg Reed, Assistant Director of Aquisitions and Development at Kimco Realty, since hosting a community meeting last fall that addressed the future of the shopping center.   The revitalization of the Perry Hall business district is one of my top priorities.
