OPENING A MCDONALDS FRANCHISE. BUFFALO WINGS AND RINGS FRANCHISE. Opening A Mcdonalds Franchise
Washingtion Square Mcdonalds in Tigard, Oregon, now closed. This Mcdonalds is located in the Washingtion Square mall. Located on the North east side of the mall, its on the main level and away from the other food places. The mall owners want this Mcdonalds to move upstairs with the other food tenets. The owner of this franchise doesn't want to, but instead open a new store across state highway 217. Strangely he doesnt want an existing building but instead a new one bulit from the ground up. This Mcdonalds is opened from 7am till 7pm and has no drive through, so I can understand his reasoning. We will see what will happen to this Mcdonalds. As you can see, this Mcdonalds sports the 70s and 80s era interior. Teal, peach and white walls. Pink neon lights. Plastic, plastic and plastic. Would be interesting if they stayed here and remodeled. >b>UPDATE: 2-20-2010 It seems this location has closed down. I talked with the former store mananger who moved to another mcdonalds in the area and he said the reason why they moved out was the rent was just to high and the owners of the mcdonalds in the area, UTB enterprises could not afford it. McDonald's, Olathe, 618 E Santa Fe, 2 wm
The McDonalds which sat on this spot, was a long, long store, built in about 1970, and added onto a time or two. It was a corporate store, not a franchise, I believe. It was of the vintage that had a large, "Y" shaped pole sign at the street, and had a full basement. It never got a playland. On truck day, steel lids were opened in the back sidewalk, and stock was dropped down a slide or chute, where it was channeled onto rollers, and put away. OSHA must've had a fit. A 40- or 50- pound case of frozen meat, or fries, can hit those rollers and take off any stray fingers.
