New restaurants and shops are continually opening in the shopping center, including The Buzz, set to first open Thursday to coincide with the grand opening activities.
The Buzz, owned by 4EG, is an offshoot of Beeline, a full-scale cocktail bar set to open in Newport on the Levee this fall. It will occupy a 2,800-square-foot space with garage-style doors that will show views of the Ohio River.
