The Lake Grove area is probably the most up and coming neighborhood of any in Lake Oswego.  Mainly it is because there are older, smaller homes on large lots that are being torn down to accommodate new construction.  Most of those homes built are priced at the higher price ranges and are of the quality of a custom home.

In addition, the Lake Grove retail and community is being revitalized.  I’ve written posts here about the Lake Grove Village Shopping Center that is due to open in April and some of the plans that the City of Lake Oswego has for this area in other posts.

Further, this area offers rental housing, senior housing, retail developments, bus service and easy freeway access plus he WalMart is coming to this area too.  The Lake Grove Elementary school is a high ranking school and sits almost in the middle of this neighborhood.

I have pictures of the Lake Grove area posted at my ALL ABOUT…..Lake Oswego Living Photo Blog and articles written here on my ALL ABOUT…..Lake Oswego Real Estate about Lake Grove as well.

There aren’t a lot of condos in this neighborhood, however there was a new project built that helped to keep the % of list price to the sold price high in 2011 and raised the values of other Lake Grove condos.

I have been posting pictures of the construction progress at Lake Grove Village on my ALL ABOUT…..Lake Oswego Living.A Photo Blog.  But last night I went to Lake Grove and found out what’s really going on at Lake Grove Village.Coming Soon To Lake Grove Village.allaboutlakeoswegorealestate.com

Coming Soon To Lake Grove Village

Starbucks now has a new patio to sit outside during the nice weather. I asked one of the Starbucks employees about Zupans and found out it will be opening in April.

Restaurants Coming Soon To Lake Grove Village

LaProvence, that is located near Gubanc’s on Boones Ferry Road, is coming to the new Lake Grove Village. In addition, there will be a Mexican Restaurant. Rumor has it it will be the Mexican Restaurant in downtown Lake Oswego, currently next to Wizer’s.  However, since I’m not absolutely certain that’s true, I’m not publishing their name here.

Other Retailers COMING TO LAKE GROVE VILLAGE

The Mt. Park Liquor store will be located in Lake Grove Village.  I don’t know if they are closing their current location or if this will be a second store.  A yogurt bar is also coming just in time for summer.

Do you have any additional information as to who will be moving into Lake Grove Village?  Let me know and I will post it here.

There’s an entire revitalization of the Lake Grove area being planned by the City of Lake Oswego through 2024. Here’s a link to the Lake Grove Village Center plan by the City of Lake Oswego. My first local news story is about the Lake Grove Shopping Center which is a part of this plan.Lake Grove.allaboutlakeoswegorealestate.com

Lake Grove Revitalization

There was an article in the Lake Oswego Review awhile ago that indicated what the owners had planned for this small strip mall. Here’s the article. Now comes word that Baskin & Robbins is closing their Lake Grove store after 35 years due to the remodeling, expansion and construction of the new Center. Baskin & Robbins has already purchased the existing Baskin & Robbins that was down by the Safeway Shopping Center on Boones Ferry Road near I-5. Good news so you can continue to support them and shop “local”. There are other stores closing at the Lake Grove Shopping Center as well.

New Lake Grove Shopping Center

Construction of the Lake Grove Shopping Center will begin in February. There’s still on-going discussions as to who the anchor store will be but it may be Zupan’s. Don’t worry, Starbucks and Rite Aid aren’t moving, nor is the barber shop.

Will Nicole Roskos’ Forest Heritage Mural stay intact?

Also, what’s going in where the furniture store was, next door to Lakewood Elementary, and does it include the now-closed Kentucky Fried Chicken restaurant?

Schools

Here’s the 2012-2013 Lake Oswego School Boundary Map.  There are changes being made due to some school closures next year.  Before you purchase a home, check the boundary map to make sure you will be in the school district you think you will be or want to be in.

Lake Grove Revitalization

Recently, I posted the profile for the Lake Grove neighborhood of Lake Oswego. I wrote about the remodeling and expansion of the Lake Grove Shopping Center. There has been an update on the construction. Rumor has it (and it’s only a rumor) that Zupan’s will be the anchor grocery store. The shopping center should be open in time for the holidays this year.

There’s some other new construction in the retail sector in Lake Grove. Starbucks (with a drive-thru) is going in at the KFC and Sherwin Willams will be where the Andrews Furniture Gallery store was.
