Packard Plaza — Local services in Cudahy

Cudahy needs a food store Their are many open spaces for Aldi's. The reason why Aldi's,Dunham's and others years ago. Is the rent increase if thousands of dollars. Aldi's wants to have a store in cudahy. They want to own not rent. But of course the city won't let that happen. Instead the city let a liquor store build next to McDonald's and the old pick n save and the loan store are storage units. Across from Martin ave and Packard are storage units. I don't think many of the people in cudahy want or need those things and other senseless things.

Driving down Packard ave is looking like a dump city. It has a bar or two every block and storage units. Why would the city ok for a liquor store next to McDonald's where kids frequent? It looks pathetic where it is at.

But further north it's nice and not dumpy for a few blocks. You have Jen's treats ,Disco round( is a great cheap place to buy CDs,games and more. You can find older to newer items and the owner is so nice and treats every customer with respect. And their are some other Little stores.

Probably the kick back's are higher for the city to have a liquor store, storage units and other senseless things that the people in Cudahy don't really need.

I like others don't understand why the city passed on Walmart, a movie house where Kohl's food used to be and more? We need a food store in cudahy again. Pick n save lost business and closed. If their was a updated store I think it would last. Why would the city want the people in Cudahy to spend in other cities? The board needs to think...

A dinosaur strip mall that at one time had some big name anchor stores like Gimbles and sears and a few others and even a grocery store Now it's getting by but looks it's age There's a nice family style restaurant on one end that has good food and good portions On the other side a Dollar Tree store and a Family Dollar and a very nice and very clean Salvation Army Thrift store and in corner you find a smoke shop and tiny United States Postal service and and new store Eddie's Liquidation Center just opened recently and is a pretty big store On one side of the property there's a CVS , a Credit Union and an Auto Zone auto parts store and you'll find more parking lot than you than will ever need oh yeah and a College Hunks junk pickup can be found next to the restaurant And F.Y.I. there was once a Mc Donald's where the CVS now sits and back in the olden days a carnival with rides would set-up at least once a year but I digress go...

I love the Joann fabrice here and the National Discount odds and ends store with closeout prices like decorations for every holiday/party at super low prices 49c and up. I make it a point to stop here for entertaining supplies, cards, household and car supplies ar a fraction of the cost and typical retail stores. Also, this "strip mall" has a Family Dollar store, a post office, a nice, great value, inexpensive family restaurant called Castillos and lastly a brand spanking new Salvation Army thrift store. Haven't been able to visit there yet. But looking...
