What's Replacing This Old Hardware Store in Absecon, NJ?

Curiosity has me wondering what's happening on a corner of Absecon where it looks like something new is coming soon.

I've noticed some exterior facelifting and renovation going on at the old hardware store off White Horse Pike and Route 9 in Absecon.

Frankly, even though I live in the area, I never even noticed the business had closed.

But lately, there's been some updating to the building's exterior and a new paint job, so something's formulating.

Wouldn't it be something if another liquor store opened there just as White Horse Liquors nears completion of its new, freestanding store right across the pike?

I know nothing for sure, it's just my brain speculating.

I'll keep my eyes on the structure as its transformation continues. In the meantime, if you've got any intel, feel free to share in the comments below!
