A well known arts, crafts and home decor store is coming to Franklin, filling a big box vacancy along U.S. 31.The former Kroger grocery store in Northwood Plaza off U.S. 31 will be empty no longer.Hobby Lobby plans to open in the former grocery location.The company was recently issued a permit to do...
Yay! Is this real!?! If we can get a Target now, a Starbucks by the interstate and a few more restaurants that donβt serve burgers or pizza, I would never have to leave Franklin. πππΌ
Hope They can draw employees as there are more jobs in Franklin, and not enough people wanting "millennials" to work
Hope they succeed. Awful close to the Greenwood location.
Happy to also have a store to which public transportation is accessible. So good to have quality products available for hobby and sewing folks. That has been sadly lacking in our Franklin. Now, if we could get a furniture store. . .
Yes I know I already told her
Glad the building will not be sitting empty, but I'll still drive up to Michael's.
Bad news for my bank account!!!
Is there a Chick Fil A or a McAllisters in plans for by the interstate ? Hint hint
Yay! I like that it will open up more job opportunities!!
No more Starbucks! Theres 3 in Franklin alone. That's enough
Oh no!!! Iβm going to need a second job. At least I had to make an effort to go up to the one in Greenwood! π

Multiple roads in Johnson County are closed due to high water. The Sheriff's Office and many other public agencies are out assisting motorists who have chosen to drive through high water.
One call occurred at 2744 South 225W, Franklin, where a driver chose to drive through extremely high water. Three people had to be rescued from the roof of the vehicle as water rushed into the vehicle.
The Johnson County Sheriff's Office Dive Team are on stand-by awaiting to assist. We are requesting that people do not drive through high water, you do not know how deep the flooded area is nor do you know how swift the water is moving.
Johnson County Highway is out placing barricades up closing multiple roads. We are asking people to obey the signage and not drive around the barricades.
