ReplyMarketplace was just down the street from our first house in Bowie. It was awesome! We could walk to the movies, pizza, Ben Franklin Craft store, Peebles, dry cleaners, Safeway, the list goes on!!! What wasn't to love?! So sad that its just an eyesore now :(

Unfortunately, I think we're tired of all the vacanies in Bowie. We're not going to get something we want (Trader Joes, anyone?). I completely expect it to be some low-rent, trashy store to fill the void.

ReplyHaven't been there, and really don't plan on it. The Cakery is great and the owners are Bowie residents - even sweeter!

Reply"New" businesses, seriously? Fitness 4 Less is relocating from its current location at Old 450 and 197. Peepers is moving from Free State. Dunkin Donuts is less than 2 miles up the road on Highbridge. I agree with most readers - I'd rather see a Trader Joe's or Whole Foods. Wegmans would have been great, too! Guess Lanham, Gambrills, and Annapolis have a lot nore to offer than Bowie.

ReplyWe, too lost power around 5pm. It was still out @ 9:30 so we called in to BGE (again) and were told that our area had been restored! It did come back on by 11pm.

Those "freak early spring snow showers" on March 6 were nothing but rain.
