Arnold Construction Progress

A snapshot of a construction project in Arnold foretells the coming business on Richardson Road.

In July, ArnoldPatch posted a few photos of construction sites around the City of Arnold. Over the next few days we will publish new photos of the construction sites and the new businesses that have opened this year or will open in 2012.

The pictures above show contractors building a new car service station business, Express Mart, that will open at 1919 Richardson Rd. No formal ribbon cutting date for the business owners has been given.

The following photos show the Phillips 66 gas station that was formerly on the site.

"It's been a good year in the City of Arnold," Counts said.
