Buckroe Village Retail Shops

In this times when fewer and fewer retail shops have been started it was good to visit this development which was started in 2007. A convenience store anchor owner wanted to develop the remaining property. A  small residential development is behind these building owned by the same developer.

The building serves as a sound buffer for the houses which are behind this development and provides for convenience stores. The stores are 2B construction and are all Mercantile spaces. Both the contractor and owner were clients who were easy to work during economically hard times. Everything that was designed was built with only minor changes to bring the job in under budget and on time. 



The Convenience Store from the West: my design for the entry of the Convenience store provided visual security and a playful entry into a very busy store. The only difference is that my color scheme included a red and white awning for concealing the security grill located above the storefront.
