Waldo Imports, 7222 Wornall Rd., a family owned and operated business, has been at this location for at least 30 years. Before Waldo Imports, Peg's Pantry, a drive-thru grocery, was there. Owner Pete Gore arrived in 1978 with his auto repair shop for imports. Word has it that Mr. Gore is ready to retire and the property may be for sale.
Have you noticed the new empty lot on Gregory Blvd.? Previously home to Le Vine Flowers, 11 W. Gregory Blvd., the building was purchased by the next door neighbor- New Reform Temple. The original plans were to utilize the space for educational programs but the building required too much expense and remodeling. For the immediate future, a multi-level garden is planned that will be used for private weddings and other functions by the Temple. It is expected to be used by the end of the year.
