Shoppes at Wyndham Village announces tenants

ABOVE: Downtown Greendale

BizTimes.com reports that Shoppes at Wyndham Village has the following tenants signed up:

• Aveda salon
• Ferch's Malt Shoppe & Grille
• Sport Clips
• Cousins Subs (previously announced to great fanfare)

Also noted:

Mid-America, which is handling the leasing for Wyndham Village developer Mark Carstensen Construction & Development Companies Inc., is also negotiating with a "local restaurant," which would occupy a stand-alone 7,000-square-foot building that would be built at the shopping center, Rosenfeld said.

Long rumored, the Ferch's announcement is interesting. On the one hand, hats off to Shoppes for placing a locally-owned business. On the other hand, it may be very instructive to see how the horrendous site plan at Shoppes affects an eatery that is primarily known for the "traditional, strollable" mainstreet vibe that you get at its primary location in Greendale.

The Greendale location is on a residential-type street and adjacent to a wonderful park; the Shoppes location will be adjacent to sheets of asphalt and a very busy intersection.

The "local restaurant" announcement shows some promise. Now the question is: Will they get a break on their liquor fee ala Staybridge Suites?

"Now the question is: Will they get a break on their liquor fee ala Staybridge Suites?"

My guess is Only if they plan on giving out free drink tickets to people who will be staying overnight at the restaurant as Staybridge plans on doing with their "Free" liquor license.

I thought you would enjoy today's Franklinnow headline, John:

Sounds so TRIUMPHANT, right?

Almost as tiumphant as the announcement that a Sport Clips will located there.

I joked on your blog a couple weeks ago about the possiblity of a "Great Clips" coming to the developement.

I was WAY off.
