East Northporters
On Larkfield, across from Best Yet they are putting up (rather they put up a new building). To me it looks like a Walgreens.. Do you think that is what is going there? Do we really need a Walgreen's when we have Eckerd's on one corner and CVS 2 traffic lights away? Then need to put something good there..Like...hmm,,ummmm Cheesecake Factory...LOL I think its kind of silly if its a Walgreen's, do you agree?

Re: East Northporters
My FIL told me it will be a Walgreens.
I don't understand how they can have an Eckerd's, CVS and Walgreens all within a few blocks
Do we have that many prescriptions in East Northport?
ETA: I actually moved here from Plainview. All of the chain stores were making the traffic horrendous. JMO, but I erally wouldn't want anything that would attract more traffic to Larkfield.

Re: East Northporters
I agree with you 100%! I think its ridiculous. Larkfield is already worse then the L.I.E. The small (and I mean small) plus it that Walgreen's (most) are open 24/7..but honestly, I think Im sticking with CVS.

Re: East Northporters
Yes, its supposed to be a walgreens. Yes I think its pretty stupid. I also heard that CVS is supposed to go where Barnes and Noble was on the corner of jericho and larkfield. The whole commack/e npt. area is an area of excess.

Re: East Northporters
That does not make sense. A Walgreens? And I was pretty upset when they closed the B&N. And now they are going to put a CVS? But my husband and I were talking about how many more home depots do we need. They are opening another one near Costco.....Why? Why not open a Lowe's for instance?

I also heard the B&N was going to be a CVS. B&N was so upset because they lost out on the lease to CVS.
They are putting in a Home Depot & A Kohls over by Costco too.
Good News is I thing there putting a Cheese Cake Factory on 110 by the mall.

I didn't know they were putting a Cheese Cake Factory over there. That's great. I work in Melville!!
I agree, the last thing Larkfield Road needs is another pharmacy.

Re: East Northporters
I think it really stinks that there is no bookstore in East Northport. And we really don't need another chain - the one independent drug store (Town Drug) will probably be out of business soon with Walgreens coming in.

A lot of independent drug stores stay alive by carrying specialty meds that CVS, etc. don't and orthodic equipment. We went to Town Drug because the vet prescribed liquid prozac to our cat while moving. Town Drug has a partnership with him to carry such meds. My MIL loves the $3 coupons we get in the mail... she has about 10,000 free bottles of hairspray from the coupons

The other independent drugstore is Rx Express......I actually prefer those smaller drugstores to get my prescriptions...there are less prone to errors.....

I heard that the home depot on Jericho was going to close and become a Lowe's. Over by Costco - its going to be a super Home Depot and also a Walmart.
I haven't heard about cheescake factory on 110, but did hear about one opening in the smithhaven mall (along with D I C K's sporting goods and B&N)

We were just in Lowe's on Monday and my husband was inquiring about this. They mentioned that they were going to open one in Bayshore and another in Farmingdale. They didn't mention this location. My husband for one thing will be very happy about this since he likes Lowes better(if the home depot in Jericho becomes Lowes)....they are more organized, better selections, and more helpful. I will call him and tell him. He will be happy.

Re: East Northporters
I don't think the East Northport/Commack HD is changing to Lowes, if anything HD has been trying to move right down the road *across from sears mall/ best buy* There is a big open lot back there.
The Smithtown HD opened to help releave some of the Commack traffic.
I wish a Lowes would open up closer!!!!!
