Murfreesboro Opens 100-Acre Shopping 'Avenue'

From the Tennessean (10-03-07):
"Developers and Murfreesboro officials ... hope the Avenue will capture shopping dollars generated in Rutherford County itself. Many residents of the fast-growing county do much of their shopping in Davidson and Williamson counties, especially for electronics and clothing, said David Penn, director of the Business and Economic Research Center at Middle Tennessee State University. 'This is going to help plug the leakage of sales for the county,' he said."
