WellStreet Filling Blockbuster Space - Good Fit?

Urgent care facility coming to Saddlebrook location.

Opening in May, will fill the space left by Blockbuster in the Saddlebrook shopping plaza on State Bridge Road.

When Blockbuster closed locations nationwide earlier this year, we asked Johns Creek Patch readers what should go in this space. Most responses (except for one advocating a strip club) centered around restaurants, with opinions varied on chain locations, specialty locales and fine dining.

Do you think an urgent care facility is a good use of this space?
