The shops have a policy where dogs are allowed on the plazas and in some of the stores. The stores which allow  the animals will have pet friendly stickers in their windows. There will also be watering stations available.

However, the dogs need to be restrained and on their best behavior. Restrained means on a leash at all times. As stated by Tiffany Villavicencio "we just invite friendly, well behaved dogs on a leash."

Posted November 11, 2005 by Dan Keating  There are now more shops in the Promenade open for business. Here is some of them. American Eagle Outfitters, Charlotte Russe, Coldwater Creek, Game Stop and more. Check the list Here Also On the Border restaurant is hard at work training staff and getting ready for their Grand Opening November 17.

Posted October 29, 2005 by Dan Keating  In talking to the new Metrolux 14 theater in the Promenade Shops the manager stated to me that they were planning to be open for today's performances. When I was there they were madly running around attending to last minute opening day details but the popcorn machine was working. I am sure of it since it smelled great mwhen I was around lunch time. The Metrolux 12 on Denver Ave is now closed.

Posted October 28, 2005  The Promenade Shops Opened this morning with there first full day and the first day of their grand opening celebration. The parking lots were crowded early as the families arrived for the parade and other opening ceremonies. I walked the entire main street to see what was open. You can find a list of shops here. There are 33 shops that were open this morning and more will come through the following two months. I personally found an item on sale at the Best Buy store that was even better than the Ft Collins store so I made my first purchase at the shops. I was by all the evidence joined buy many 1000's of others as there were many shoppers with their hands full of logo printed shopping bags.

It was also reported even before the official opening that the sales at Foley's,  Dick's Sporting Goods and Best Buy are running ahead of projections. As with most brand new large projects they have some clean up to do but I would say it is easy to get around and easy to find things. If you are hungry, the only restaurant open was Red Robin and they were doing a land office wait in line business at lunch.

There is still much to enjoy at this grand opening throughout the weekend if you are of a mind to do so. See schedule here.

Posted October 24, 2005  The Grand Opening will be held Friday October 28 through Sunday October 30. There is much going on all day as the shops introduce themselves to the public. Celebration has free gifts, jeep give away and a free trip to Vegas. Also on tap is the Budweiser Clydesdales and strolling artists. All day Saturday is a free music festival and Sunday there is trick or treating for the kids. Schedule.

Posted October 10, 2005  Opening day at The Promenade Shops is getting close. Officially it will open October 28th but many shops will not be ready even then and will open on a staggered schedule. Both Foley's and Best Buy are opening  before the 28th with Grand Opening sales.
