What could it possibly be?

There's a lot going on in Falmouth. Next to the Shaw's Plaza, they are building a mixed-use project called The Shops at Falmouth Center. It's going to have retail and office space and 46 market-rate apartments. This is all next to the mini-mall with Planet Fitness and Ocean State Job Lots. But I'm focused on what's happening to 223 Route One in Falmouth.

This has been a credit union and an art framing store, but it has been going under renovations since the summer. They replaced the roof this summer, there was a bunch of activity, and then...

Nothing. Halted. Stopped. Zippo. Nada.

Please, please don't be another bank.

The absolute last thing we need on the mile-long stretch of downtown Falmouth is a bank. There are currently nine banks on a one-mile stretch of road. That's plenty of banking for any want.

Need? Nothing. That amazing stretch of Route One in Falmouth has it all. You can get your pet groomed, see a movie, do your grocery shopping, refinance your home, and pick up a lilac bush. So it's not a matter of need, it's a matter of want. There's been lots of chit-chat about how Chipotle is needed. Young people love the Chipotle. I'd be cool with that.

But it's the anticipation, and the guessing that's driving me insane! What could it be? What will it be? Why is it taking so long? We'll keep watching...
