Dollar General to open in Lincoln this fall

We’re told the folks in Lincoln can expect a new Dollar General store next fall.

C.R. Crawford Construction will be the general contractor on the project, which calls for a 9,000-SF store. May 24 is the scheduled start date and the store is expected to be completed within 120 days.

Crawford got some other good news recently, too. It seems the Olive Garden in Jonesboro, built as the world’s first LEED-certified casual dining chain restaurant by Crawford, is being upgraded to LEED “Silver” status.
