Avondale: New Dunkin Donuts/Baskin Robbins coming

A Dunkin Donuts/Baskin Robbins outlet is coming to Avondale.

The combined restaurant will be built on the southwest corner of the MLK/Harvey/Vernon intersection.

Buildings on the site were recently demolished. (These buildings can be seen on the Windows Live link.)

One, 3033 Vernon Place, was an old office building built in 1953.

The other, an amalgam of small shops at 435-439 Martin Luther King, was damaged by fire and condemned in late 2005 and wasn't able to fulfill its economic potential anymore.

The nearest Baskin Robbins locations are on Dixie Highway in Fairfield and on Buttermilk Pike, just off of the I-71/I-75 exit. The latter location is also a combined store.

The nearest Dunkin Donuts location is downtown.
