We finally received all our approvals and started to work on demolition and layout. The metal building has been delivered and we plan to start footing construction by mid July. Looking to the future, we plan to complete the footing and slab by Mid August and start to set the building soon after. So stay connected and watch this project being raised out of the ground and visit the Shore's Largest Flea Market...Bargain Bill's.

Since our last update, we have completed the shell for the 10,000 square feet sales area, installed the 2nd floor for the 5,000 square foot bar area and remodeled the existing restrooms to accommodate more customers. We also installed 10 acres of new parking and started on the new entrances. We have started on the new parking areas on Route 13, completed all the site drainage systems, and installed the building pad for a new 40,000 square foot retail shoppes. We have begun construction on the new 6,000 square foot Convenience Store over the existing restaurant area, with one of the longest gas canopy’s on the eastern shore, well over 200 feet long. Work has begun on all the required mechanical systems including a 45,000 gallon water tank, new septic system and water supplies as well as an entirely new electrical system.
