Openings on the horizon
In the next week, two new retailers plan to open up in Roanoke.
Tomorrow (Thursday), Chocolatepaper, a gourmet chocolate, card and gift shop will open its new downtown Roanoke store at 308 Market St. Chocolatepaper already has a location in Roanoke County, off Electric Road.
And next week, on Sept. 4, Planet Fitness will open at Towers Shopping Center in Roanoke. This health club, which is new to the Roanoke Valley market, will land in the former spot of Hancock Fabrics on Towers lower level.
Cool. We can eat sweet and then sweat it out.

Awesome! I didn't think Chocolatepaper was supposed to open until September. It's pretty rare around here for something to open early!
