Fern Creek Commons retail development
Summary
A roughly 200,000-square-foot retail center with a grocery store, Wawa, and big-box tenants is headed to Metro Council for final approval on Bardstown Road. Neighbors negotiated privacy fencing, lighting limits, and use bans, and area road projects were cited as solving the traffic concerns that killed an earlier version.
