4. Chick-fil-A to tear down previous location, add parking, change drive-thru flow in Grapevine

Chick-fil-A will create a new flow for drive-thru customers and add additional green space at the location at 1235 William D. Tate Ave. in Grapevine. Overall, the William D. Tate Avenue store has been in operation for 33 years. Kristen Spears, from Little Diversified Architectural Consulting, said the change will help maintain safe vehicle flow and reduce the potential for vehicle stacking. The proposed changes would increase the queue length to accommodate the drive-thru customer and reduce the likelihood of stacking toward internal drive aisles and adjacent properties.
