Anyone know what happened with the High's on Coastal Highway around 131 next to Brewski Bros? I wouldn't think a convenience store would be as hard hit by the economy. I always found their store to be clean and well stocked.

I haven't seen a Highs store anywhere in years.

Several years ago the Southland Corp (7-11) purchased all the High's (MD) and Rudder's(PA).Now as they become less profitable they are being phased out.

But there's that nice newer one in between Easton and Cambridge, I think. I know most were phased out, but weird that they put in that new one.

What was a high's is now going to be a Quick Mart, and where the Popeye's was at 94th Street is now going to be the bank (on the same property) relocated. The old Hardee's on the same lot is going to be a new upscale bar.

I have seen the grading of the parking lot, surprised $$$ is being spent on relocation. Granted the bank is in a poor spot and the highway will help but I guess the future of that property looks undeveloped for a little longer. Upscale bar too? Sounds like a little competition with Liguid Assets.

The Quick Mart will have a little food counter which is cool. I know Dough Roller north will be a crab house, Old Mill I believe.

It looks like the Quick Mart will be an extension of Brewski Bros. They ave knocked down the wall that separated Brewski Bros. and High's. It looks like it should be open by Memorial Day.

The "One Stop Market" that had taken over the High's on 133rd only lasted a year.  I went in once, and there was not much to it.  There is now a sign up indicating that a Primo Hoagies is coming soon to that location.  They are a Philly/Delaware County establishment (I think) and they make very good hoagies.  I think this will be a nice addition to North OC.

Primo Hoagies? Sounds GREAT. Maybe give DeVito's some competition? They have the best sandwich, the Godfather.
