Title: Look what's going in next door to Tyler's Taproom in Apex...
Post by: BenB on Thu 10/28/10 02:49 PM
This is in Beaver Creek Commons. Sign says opening Nov. 15 & the owner was Greg something-or-other. Wasn't the guy over in N. Raleigh named Greg, or was that one of the guys at Cameron Village? I stuck my head in the door, but nobody was around.

That's all I need, a pub, a book store, & a hobby shop within walking distance of my house. Now if they'd just put in a Char Grill here!

I love Hayes Hobby, but it's an hours drive. Having a shop so close to home will be very welcomed.

Cool....hopefully they will carry some Model Master Acrylics in a full range as well as other key supplies we need. Hobby Town has been great with some supplies as well as help pointing interested parties over to the club.

Yes indeed, it was a Greg who owned the Hobbytown USA on Capitol Boulevard in the late 1990s. Shane or Ronnie would remember his last name.  Coincidence, or a return to the retail hobby world?  Time will tell...

That is nice. The HT in Greensboro has an outstanding line of paints, thinners, etc. Hopefully he will follow suit.

Well, this certainly is good news! And Ben is a lucky guy: Books, plastic, food, spirits - all within walking distance. Must be nice!

Cheers,

The owner's name is Greg Burke. Ring a bell?
