Fourth Wellesley CVS edges closer; St. James parking lot cleaned up

April 17, 2013 by Bob Brown Leave a Comment

990 Worcester St, CVS location, 2013Metal fences have been erected along the Rte. 9 east property near Justine’s Table and Dunkin’ Donuts, as developers get ready to tear down some structures and add a fourth CVS to the Wellesley landscape (the others are in Linden Square, Wellesley Square and Lower Falls). We have an inquiry in to get a sense of when the project might be done.

This CVS at 990 Worcester St., had been the source of significant controversy over the past few years, with many residents ruing possible traffic trouble as a result of the new store going in. Last year, discussions over the proposed CVS parking lot continued.

But according to Meghan Jop, Wellesley’s Planning Director, the appeals that had stalled the project to the right of 978 Worcester St., have been resolved and a single building with a double drive-thru is on the way.

The demolition permit hasn’t been issued, Jop says, but the town expects the application for it to arrive soon.
