Updated: Big Changes Coming to Former Rite-Aid Location in Springfield
SPRINGFIELD, TENNESSEE: (Smokey Barn News) – While the city of Springfield initially confirmed plans for Wawa to move into the former Rite-Aid property at the corner of Memorial Blvd and Tom Austin Hwy, that deal has since fallen through, according to City Manager Ryan Martin.
However, new developments are underway, as Planet Fitness has now chosen the location for their latest gym. Construction is actively progressing, and the facility is set to open in the coming weeks. This new Planet Fitness location will feature state-of-the-art equipment, a PF Black Card Spa®, and clean, welcoming locker rooms. As part of their Judgement Free Zone™, Planet Fitness aims to provide a comfortable space for everyone, from first-time gym users to fitness enthusiasts. Members can enjoy free fitness training, and anyone who joins early can use other area locations until this Springfield site opens.
This shift from Wawa to Planet Fitness marks a new direction for the space, which has been vacant for several years. For more details on Planet Fitness and its membership options, you can [click here].
