City of Falls Church:
“It’s only one month away now, the day every structure will
be demolished at the site of the upcoming ‘flagship’ Harris Teeter grocery and
285 rental apartments on six levels above it. That means the old post office,
that means the old Anthony’s Restaurant.
Rushmark Properties Developer Patrick Kearney told the
monthly luncheon of the Falls Church Chamber of Commerce Tuesday that Monday,
March 3 is the target date for the wrecking ball. Many Falls Church residents,
recalling their many happy years of patronizing the old Anthony’s, will
undoubtedly be present to pay respects, even as a new Anthony’s begins to rise
a mile away at Rt. 50 at Annandale Road. The demolition date is contingent on
getting the building permits that have been filed for at City Hall, but
according to Kearney, there’s no reason to think there will be any delays with
them.
All the news was good coming from Kearney and his colleague
Stefan Gassner, including the fact that VDOT OK’d their request for a left-turn
option into the project for travelers going west on W. Broad St.”
