GREENFIELD — Site work is underway for a new Panda Express restaurant on State Street south of Popeyes and west of Walmart.
Panda Express, Inc. published a legal advertisement in the Daily Reporter in May reporting its intent to build the restaurant on the parcel.
Panda Express did not return requests for comment.
The parcel’s owner is Las Vegas-based CFT NV Developments LLC, whose registration with the state of Indiana lists Panda Express executives among its principals. Walmart Real Estate Business Trust recently sold the property to CFT NV Developments for $834,133.
Plans filed with the city of Greenfield show access to the site from Melody Lane and a drive-thru on the north side of the building.
