This weekend, Golden Triangle Mall is welcoming collectibles dealer Forever Famous, along with several other businesses coming on board in August.

Denton Costume and Design is opening Aug. 1 inside the mall at Loop 288 and Interstate 35E. Dickies & More, which sells scrubs, is also coming soon.

Ongoing construction along the loop has caused concern in the past year for mall officials, but they have seen improvement since two lanes opened up, allowing easier access.

Word is a couple of restaurants are eyeing the Square and surrounding blocks with plans to open this fall, if not sooner. One is proposed to be a seafood restaurant, while the other is opening a second area branch in Denton after initially opening in Corinth. As soon as specific details are available, they’ll be posted online and published in this weekly column. Be sure to check DentonRC.

Updates on Rayzor Ranch are coming soon. Though construction did not start in June as previously expected, it is slated for July or August, depending on the timing of ordinances, permits, etc., going through Denton city governmental bodies.

Developers are hoping to open a portion of Rayzor Ranch Marketplace on the north side of University Drive by next fall. Businesses that are filing initial plans to build in the proposed retail center include Sam’s Club, Wal-Mart Super Center and Lowe’s.

Wazoo’s in Argyle, which opened in January, is expecting a busy summer.

The business also offers a “parents’ night out” program on Fridays.

Franchise owner Lesley Man­uel bought Wazoo’s after seeing one in Austin. The Argyle Cham­ber of Commerce recently held a ribbon-cutting ceremony to kick off the summer for the business. For more information, call 940-380-0300.
