Lincoln Property Co. announces new tenants at Arboretum Village

Fresh Market was the first tenant developer Lincoln Property Co. lured to Arboretum Village at Gaston-Garland-Grand. Then in August Lincoln announced that Ace Hardware, which is currently at Lakewood Shopping Center, is moving to Arboretum Village as well. In September Lincoln announced that Dallas-based Luke’s Locker will be its third tenant in that shopping center. Luke’s specializes in running and fitness gear and apparel, making a shopping center so close to White Rock Lake, where Luke’s has sponsored events, a prime location. Luke’s Locker will be in a 7,500-square-foot building to be built in what is currently parking lot. Construction for Arboretum Village should start within the next month or so.

Burger joints with patios

Chip’s Old Fashioned Hamburgers announced during the last days of August that it has been approved for a covered patio for its new location on La Vista. The patio will seat about 30 people, says co-owner Brent Gamster. Chip’s also plans to hang the original, 32-year-old Chip’s sign inside the building. In related news, Liberty Burger is still waiting on the OK from owner Lincoln Property Co. for a patio at its new location in Lakewood shopping center, says managing owner Mariel Street. Liberty Burger likely won’t get its patio until after it opens in November, but they will start serving beer and burgers in the breezeway right away. “It’ll be a nice entryway into what we hope will soon be a back patio, but we’re going to start there,” Street says.

Possible pubs for East Dallas

The owner of Cock and Bull Neighborhood Pub has a new concept on the way

More business bits

in the Ferguson-Lakeland shopping center. The sign on the door says it’s going to be a “Whistling Pig Neighborhood Pub,” and the manager of Cock and Bull on Gaston confirmed that the owner of Cock and Bull is behind the project, although he couldn’t tell us more at the time. He did add, however, that “that bar is a work in progress, so it’s going to be a while.” Also, The Ginger Man pub has its sights on the old Angelo’s Italian Restaurant location on La Vista between Gaston and Abrams. “We’ve actually been looking aggressively in Lakewood for a year or two,” says Steve Schiff with The Ginger Man, “We’ve been looking at [the old Angelo’s location] and talking with the landlord, but we don’t know until we know.” The Houston-based company has six locations, including one in Dallas and Plano. Each location has an outdoor beer garden and serves more than 100 specialty beers, according to the company’s website.

Lower Greenville business roundup Company Café moved from its old location at 2217 Greenville to a spot down the block at 2104 Greenville. The new location is bigger and has access to more parking. Down the street, a restaurant called JO24 opened in place of Jack’s Southern Comfort. JO24 is a concept by Naina Srirathakul, who also is the creator of Royal Cuisine. JO24 serves mostly American food and is open from 11 a.m. to midnight on weekdays and 8 a.m. to midnight on weekends. Speaking of Royal Cuisine, Srirathakul is also building a second location, and it’ll be right next to JO24 on Lower Greenville. Across the street, Nora Restaurant and Bar began opening for lunch in August. The owners also are expanding the restaurant with a new private dining area and rooftop patio.

1 The Melissa Benge Collection, a new retail store with “French-western” flair, opened at 2823 Henderson. The store sells everything from clothes and jewelry, to soap and candles, to decorations and furniture. 2 The LA Fitness on Lovers opened on Aug. 30. 3 La Banqueta in East Dallas is closed. Owner Alberto Niro tried to relocate his business across the street but wasn’t able to make it happen because of parking issues. 4 A new e-cigarette store, vapor Dallas, is opening at 9019 Garland Road, between Old Gate and Emerald Isle, in the same shopping center as Hypnotic Donuts. 5 East Dallas’ own Green Grocer on Greenville was recently recognized as a top Right to Know Grocer in North America, Central region by the Organic Consumers Association. 6 Capital One is building a bank at the corner of Northwest Highway and Retail, next to the Sam’s Club/Wal-Mart.
