New businesses moving into long empty Layton big box stores

Last updated Wednesday, June 12, 2013 - 9:18am

LAYTON — Rather than build new, two Layton businesses — one new, the other an existing business that is expanding — are re-occupying former big box store buildings, one of which sat empty for seven years.

The “adaptive reuse” of the old Ultimate Electronics store and the former PetSmart store along West Hill Field Road should bring a new commercial energy to the area, said Kent Andersen, Layton economic specialist.

DETROIT -- Partridge Creek mall store owners enjoy its dog-friendly policy almost as much as the dog owners who shop there.

"People really enjoy it, it brings more customers in," said Cory Hardy of Bears & Buddies, who often takes his two dogs, a Chihuahua and a puggle, to work with him at the Clinton Township, Mich., establishment.

Today, dogs are welcome at places that were off limits to pets just a few years ago. No one is keeping track of the number of dog-friendly employers, but taking Fido to work and elsewhere appears to be a growing trend.
