Wawa Coming to Route 38
The convenience-store chain will add another store in Cherry Hill.
A long-vacant Blockbuster Video location on Route 38 will be transformed into a Wawa with a gas station, after the company's plan sailed through the Cherry Hill planning board this week.
Wawa's plan will take down the Blockbuster building, part of the complex anchored by Walmart, and replace it with almost a clone of its new Haddonfield Road store, complete with a stone facade and stonework on the gas station pavilion, and includes what township officials said is significant landscaping along the back of the property, which abuts a stream.
It will be the seventh Wawa in Cherry Hill and the third with a gas station; plans call for a 4,700-square foot store building and two diesel pumps in addition to six regular gas pumps.
