West-side Billion property to include Gas Stop Holiday
June 19, 2018
A 15-acre west-side property owned by Billion Automotive will include a gas station and convenience store.
Gas Stop Holiday will build on the northeast corner of 12th Street and Marion Road.
It will be the 20th location for the business owned by I-90 Fuel Services Inc.
Owner Tom Howes said it will be identical to the location recently opened at 81st Street and Minnesota Avenue, plus include separate diesel islands.
“It’s the newest prototype store for Holiday, which includes an enhanced food offering, Godfather’s Pizza, along with other fresh items,” Howes said. “There’s also an improved beer cave, touchless tunnel car wash and E15 offered at the pumps.”
Howes said he likes the intersection, which is feeding off the growing northwest part of town.
“It’s surrounded by successful businesses and has easy access to Interstate 29,” he added.
He’s planning a mid-October opening.
Billion bought the property last year and opened a reconditioning center and parts warehouse in the area. Older buildings also have been demolished, but additional plans for the land haven’t been finalized, owner Dave Billion said.
