Though I've only lived in the area for just shy of four years; it has been more than 20 years that I've been on visits to the Beach to see Family.
I remember when the Waccamaw Pottery area along Fantasy Harbour Blvd. was thriving...especially compared to what it looks like today.
Today...If you drive over the Eyesore on Hwy. 501 heading East...you'll see virtually nothing but a Huge Auction Sign and the store, Imaginations.
They do well as they are not only the best supplier of quality Dance products, but they are a HUGE...year-round Costume retailer.
For their sake alone; I hope they get some company soon.
Whenever I have to go in there to buy something; I sort of get the creeps. It's so....deserted.

I was very excited to read an article on the WMBF News website which engenders hope that something might actually happen with this area.

There's no way anything can happen overnight...but it's definitely something to look forward to.
In the meantime, we'll fly on the new Zipline at the Beach and imagine the day when so many of the ugly, empty buildings in Myrtle Beach are filled and doing well financially.
