At the September 9th Deptford Planning Board meeting, approval was awarded for two new warehouses to be developed on a wooded property adjacent to the long closed Kinsley landfill. The two planned buildings are sized at 891,260 sq ft and a 150,215 sq ft. In a change from earlier depictions, all traffic will move through Route 41 (Hurfville Road). This plan will also include updates to the Five Points intersection. Along Rt 41 they also plan a small retail building which will be presented at a later date.

The long awaited Round1 Bowling/Arcade/Bar at the Deptford Mall opens in one month, October 24th! The games are in the store and can be seen through the security gate right now! They are hiring for all positions right now, and they have a person on site this week taking applications!
A Krispy Kreme doughnut shop was approved tonight at the Deptford Planning Board meeting, for a free-standing location within the Deptford Mall parking lot. No one saw this coming! The store will be located on the Almonesson Rd side of the mall, directly across from the Longhorn Steakhouse. This will be a full doughnut bakery, supplying other retail outlets in the area.
A new Xfinity Retail store has opened in the Deptford Mall, located next to the new Dick’s Sporting Goods in the remodeled Sears segment. A new twist for the mall, the Xfinity store is only accessible from the outside of the mall.
I don’t think the new Deptford Miller’s Ale House location is cancelled, yet… but its definitely back-burnered with no solid plans to start construction again, according to Miller’s Executive Management (just a few weeks ago).
Fashion jeweler Lovisa is planned to open in the Deptford Mall this fall, ahead of the holiday shopping season. We’ve also learned that the opening of Round One bowling/arcade center will also be a fall opening date (which is a shift from their originally expected opening date)
