Our home is only 8 years old. We have been the only owners of this home. We have enjoyed many family gatherings including my daughter's wedding which we had in our home.

Target Store Opening March 2013

The multi-level building in Uptown will be unique with covered, ground-level parking and the store elevated directly above. The store will sell all of the typical items that Target has but will also include fresh produce, fresh packaged meat and pre-packaged baked goods.

There will have more than 200 members in the 155,000 square foot building. To fill those positions, Target will hold job fairs 2 months prior to the new store opening. Canidates may also apply online or at in-store kiosks in Target stores.

This infill project will breathe more life into the already buzzing uptown area. BJ's restaurant is right next door and there appears to be many more projects planned for the Uptown Winrock area.
