Amarillo Debates Adult Store Opening Near Schools

This is not new information in Amarillo but it is close to opening up, if it is not already. The Adam & Eve store is coming to Amarillo. The building that has sat empty on Western Street near Wolflin Ave is getting new life.

A Building With History

It was once a Payless Shoe Source. It was even once a Pier One but it has been empty for some time now. That space is being taken over by what’s promoted online as America’s favorite adult store.

I can’t even click on the site since I am on a work computer, and I get the “Sorry, you don’t have permission to visit this site.” message.  The darn adult themes filter got me. Just another work day in Amarillo for me, getting a talking to because I am trying to do some research for a new store coming to Amarillo.

Community Concerns Over Location

I have never been to an Adam & Eve store but soon it will be open here in Amarillo. There are some people that are concerned about it in our city. The talk is mainly because it is so close to Tascosa High School. It is also really close to some daycares on Wolflin Ave, behind them. So the location has concerned some in our city. I am not surprised.

Like it or not, it is coming soon. The signage has officially gone up. If the store is not already open, it will be very soon.

Nothing inappropriate will be seen from the streets. The high school kids will not be able to enter. Not that I feel like they will want to anyway and the biggest argument is there is nothing in this store that you can’t see in certain sections of Walmart or the back of Spencer’s…
