One of York County’s older McDonald’s is moving to capture traffic at a new hot spot about a mile north of its current location. The owners of the Route 74 McDonald's, not far from West York High School, is building a new store in the Target shopping center in West Manchester Township. http://www.ydr.com/businessfull/ci_4578632 This is a case study in how sprawl is creeping outward in a radius around York.
Q. When did the York area get its first McDonald’s restaurant?...
A. The first McDonald’s opened for business on Feb. 24, 1970, in North York. It has since moved, and its original building is occupied by Bob’s Intowne Spas. The McDonald’s moving near Target was built about four years later.
