Store Opens March 16, 2012 – 2468 Cross Pointe Dr. (at Red River Rd.) Rock Hill, SC 29730. Store Hours Mon-Sat 8am-10pm, Sun 9am-8pm 

Sports fans are you ready for a new sporting goods store in Rock Hill? Development company Warren Norman Co, Inc, announced it has signed a lease for a new 71,829 sq ft Academy Sports + Outdoors. The new sporting goods store will be located at a new shopping center called High Point Crossings at the corner of Dave Lyle Blvd and Red River Road.

The talks and negotiations between the Developer and Academy began over 4 years ago. The lease singing secures a major anchor tenant for the new 40 acre, 225,000 retail square footage development with a projected real estate value when the center is completed at over 35 million dollars.

Academy Sports + Outdoors is a sports, outdoor and lifestyle retailer with a huge assortment of  hunting, fishing and camping equipment and gear along with sports and leisure products, footwear, apparel and more. The Texas-based company operates over 135 stores throughout Southeast and lower Midwest including;

Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, Oklahoma, South Carolina, Tennessee and Texas.

The Rock Hill Academy store will be their first store in the greater Charlotte region. The projected construction completion of the Academy store is estimated to be February 2012.

I am excited for 2 reasons. One, it’s nice to hear about a development project moving forward during this stale economy. Two, I have shopped Academy’s in their home city of Houston and think the stores are great and items are priced to be very competitive in the market.

A job posting for a Manager’s position for this location was posted on the Academy website in early July.

For a second year in a row Charlotte North Carolina has been voted the number one place to live by RelocateAmerica.com.

RelocateAmerica.com is an online relocation information resource owned and operated by a real state broker firm called HomeRoute. RelocateAmerica.com has been ranking cities annually for 11 years. They accept city nominations that are considered by the nominees a great place to live. The nominations then are reviewed by their editorial team along with other city key data like education, employment, crime, housing, parks etc and then ranked.

Other North and South Carolina cities in the top ten are Ashville NC and Greenville SC. Rock Hill SC is in the top 100. Fort Mill and Tega Cay which are just minutes south of Charlotte are part of the Charlotte Metro area, although not specifically listed in their ranking , I would include in the number 1 ranking. Here is the top 10 list:

1. Charlotte, NC.
2. San Antonio, TX.
3. Chattanooga, TN.
4. Greenville, SC.
5. Tulsa, OK.
6. Stevens Point, WS.
7. Asheville, NC.
8. Albuquerque, NM.
9. Huntsville, AL.
10. Seattle, WA.

It is interesting Charlotte stayed at number 1 since Forbes recently voted Charlotte 9th most miserable city to live. I have consistently disagreed with Forbes ranking of Charlotte and share the opinion of RelocateAmericas.com’s survey. Here is a link to their website for more information. How would you rank Charlotte?
