Dollar General rebuild begins in Turkey Run
KAYLEE LINDENMUTH / SHENANDOAH SENTINEL - Steel beams are already in place at the Dollar General site in Turkey Run on Nov. 14, 2023.
TURKEY RUN – Seven months after fire wrecked the Dollar General store at the Gold Star Plaza in this part of town, the Tennessee-based retailer is rebuilding.
Borough officials said the company’s construction permits were approved on Nov. 1.
Tuesday afternoon, steel beams were already in place at the site and equipment was still arriving to support the rebuild.
The borough said the store will follow the same blueprints as the original store that was built in 2001.
That building burned in a massive fire in April and the site was cleared in August in preparation for a rebuild.
In addition to the Turkey Run location, Dollar General also has locations in Ashland, Mahanoy City, Ringtown, Barnesville, Lavelle, Mount Carmel, and Humboldt in our area.
