The Cypress Point Shopping Center is a shell of its former self. Sadly the space that housed a Farm Fresh Supermarket has been empty for years. The large supermarket previously occupied the portion of the L shaped shopping center facing Diamond Springs Road. Doing business from the corner spaces are a dollar store & Sentara Family Medicine & & Sentara Therapy Center. Gone is Surf Rider & other longtime occupants of the side of the shopping center facing Wesleyan Drive. Lil Road Cat Rescue occupies a number of spaces. Well reviewed Suphan Thai is located on the same side as are a number of other eateries: Wing Stop, Ibis Cuisine & Big Apple Pizzeria to name a few. There are several bars, a tailor, nail salon, small gym, & day care center. Out parcels contain a gas station.
The shopping center is still maintained. But it gives the daytime aura of being devoid of customers, especially on the empty supermarket side. When I went last there were only a few cars in the very ample parking lots. Possibly it's busier at night with restaurant & bar traffic.
It would be great, considering the plethora of housing surrounding it, if the former grocery store space had a good occupant that would increase foot traffic as it once did. I remember the time when it was a busy place. read more
