Under Construction: South Dixie Hwy. in West Palm Beach

1/13/14 - This was last posted in late August of 2013 after discovering that the Lake Worth Dunkin' Donuts was closing and a new one was being built on South Dixie Hwy. in West Palm Beach. It also was around the same time that we learned about the closing of Park Avenue Barbeque in Lake Worth. I am re-posting it now as it is getting a lot of hits today.

Dunkin' Donuts is open now and has been for about two weeks. The former location in Lake Worth is dark. There is activity across the street to the south. The former "Pet Shop" building is opening as a coffee shop I hear.

The former Park Avenue Barbeque property is being used for World Thrift customer parking. The arrangement is make-shift at best. People coming from World Thrift have to physically lift their shopping carts over curb stops and other barriers between the two properties. Most people continue to park in the Arbor Plaza shopping center immediately to the north of World Thrift.
