Please there are 3 Walgreens easily accessible from <br />Arden Hills. We don't need another. There are also pharmacies at CUB, <br />Target, and Health Partners right up Lexington and also in the <br />Shoreview Mall. <br />When the post office in New Brighton moves the sub station at the <br />Arden Hills pharmacy will be our closest post office and even now it <br />is easier to use than the one in New Brighton. <br />What would really be nice at that corner would be a bakery. Case in <br />point: I was a frequent shopper at the Shoreview Farmer's market this <br />summer. There were two bakeries represented there. They were both <br />very busy, and if you didn't go early enough, often the bread you <br />wanted would be sold out. This indicates to me that folks around here <br />would patronize a good bakery. A bakery would give us not only good <br />bread but other treats that are not stuffed into plastic boxes, <br />forcing you to buy 4 or 6 when you only want one, etc. Besides think <br />of the lovely aroma that would come from a good bakery at that <br />corner. (Yes I know there are bakeries at CUB and Target but they <br />don't do what those bakeries at the Farmers Market did) . <br />Please reconsider putting a Walgreens that we don't need at that <br />corner and think about what fun it would be to have a good bakery in <br />the neighborhood. <br />Sincerely, Evelyn Lawyer (4539 Keithson Drive, Arden Hills) <br /> <br />1 <br />
