Bethesda's newest convenience store, News Express - in the ground floor of Triangle Towers - opened yesterday.
The Cordell Avenue shop and newsstand will put its U.S. Mail and Western Union services into operation next week, the owner said last evening.
Those services, as well as the newsstand aspect of News Express, set it apart from what would otherwise be a standard convenience store. Since Sheetz and Wawa are apparently barred from opening in Montgomery County, independent stores like News Express are the only competition 7-Eleven has to contend with in Bethesda.
Among lottery offerings, News Express has TV screens dedicated to Keno and simulated horse racing, as well as a table where players can sit.
The opening is a boon for Triangle Towers residents in particular, as well as for those in other nearby apartments and condos.
