Visions for Vacancies: Annandale Boys & Girls Club

What would you like to see at the former site of the Annandale Boys & Girls Club?

 

Our last Visions for Vacancies for the Frame Factory received five comments.

This week, we've selected the former Annandale Boys & Girls Club (ABGC) location on Columbia Pike, located at 7236-A Columbia Pike.

Back in March, the ABGC moved to 4216 Annandale Road. Since then, the section of the building the organization once occupied on Columbia Pike has been vacant.

What would you like to see at this property? What kind of business do you think would best serve the community's needs and draw some foot traffic to Columbia Pike?

We need another Asian restaurant. I'd be willing to bet $10.00 that what goes in there!

I think a good hotdog/hamburger shop would be good. I don't know of any place one can get a good hotdog in Annandale

Arts and craft gallery with a coffee/juice bar and cushy cozy chairs to relax in

I like Angel's idea..that house is so charming and cute, that it would lend itself to it. Either that, or how about turning it into an "Annandale Visitor Center"? We need to do what we can to salvage our beautiful little historic section and keep it intact- it's our last connection to history with all the tasteless new construction taking over. It's bad enough their going to ruin it with the new, unnecessary Walgreen's taking over Fuddrucker's location and the 2-story bank across the street.
