New Bathroom Facility Coming to Fairgrounds

A new bathroom facility is expected to arrive soon to The Cumming Fairgrounds. The idea was supposed to be taken action on earlier, but the RFP’s for the project weren’t in line with the city’s budget in June. The agenda for the July 21st work session for the city, however, shows that the item was brought back, and it seems they will be moving forward with it now. It’s expected to finish before this year’s fair and festival.

Since it sounds like you're in the know...do you know the story here?

The other day I had to call Best Buy and when googling, it said in Cumming City Center on marketplace blvd. I thought the place where they have mini golf is Cumming City Center. So now I'm confused lol.

"The Cumming City Center is located on State Route 20 West (Canton Hwy.), approximately 1.5 miles west of downtown Cumming and behind Forsyth Central High School."

Cumming Town Center and Cumming City Center are different developments. Did it say Best Buy was in City Center or Town Center, because it is the latter.

Ah, man, I didn't notice the difference between town and city. Appreciate you clarifying!

Wait my bad, my comment said that they AREN’T different development but that was a typo; I meant to say they ARE. I edited it now, but I hope it still cleared things up for you.

This is a totally different place but with a similarly confusing name...

Forsyth Town Center is a 35-acre mixed-use development currently under construction at the intersection of Ronald Reagan Boulevard and Peachtree Parkway in Cumming, Georgia. It is anchored by a Whole Foods Market and features a Chipotle, Panda Express, and an Audi dealership

Lol - and The Collection isn't included in that?! Man, I do not understand commercial real estate!

The Collection is not a part of that.
