The easiest way to be in the know.

It’s Friday, Aug. 23, 2024: We are back and rested and ready for school. Ok, not so much on that last one but getting there. Know who wasn’t resting? West Chester. West Goshen supervisors announced plans to reverse themselves and allow Wawa to build at the Parkway Shopping Center. West Chester Borough debated Airbnbs (again.) West Chester Off-Campus Housing opened a new apartment building ahead of move-in weekend (happening now). DK Diner has new, but familiar, ownership, and Turks Head Wines is putting a high-glass shine on their glasses ahead of the opening of their new Wine Lounge and Tasting Room next weekend.  

It’s Friday, people – and it’s gorgeous out.

Who’s ready? Let’s catch up.

Reader notes: Ok, two things for you this week.

1) I am working on an article on the 2024 Gay Street closure experience. If you’ve been down this summer, send me your thoughts/experiences at cara@hellowestchesterpa.com. (Thank you to those who already shared!)

2) I am planning to upgrade to a new email platform next week. It will (should) allow me to provide some cool new subscriber benefits but I am anticipating a learning curve so be patient – and communicative. If don’t receive an issue for any reason please reach out. Email’s above.

Thanks!
