New Sheetz at Shenandoah Motel

Published

Somebody’s excited about new Sheetz in Front Royal. Royal Examiner Photos by Roger Bianchini.

 

While there will never again be new, fresh sheets on the beds at the Shenandoah Motel on North Shenandoah Avenue, as we know there will be a new Sheetz convenience store at the site in the near future.

Demolition of the Shenandoah Motel on the northern entranceway into Front Royal began this week. Workers at the site estimated that demolition and clean up should be completed by the middle of the coming week. The opening of the Sheetz has been projected for mid to late summer if the project stays on schedule.

And what is this we hear about the possibility of a Wawa’s convenience store coming to Front Royal’s southside at a prominent location? We are investigating.

Stay tuned …

We hope everyone checked out before the demo crew checked in.
