Dan Duvall, who owns three convenience stores in Kootenai County, is constructing a fourth store in Hayden, where he’s also planning to develop a multitenant retail building.

The 5,500-square-foot, $1.5 million convenience store, to be named Lancaster Market, is under construction near the southwest corner of U.S. 95 and Lancaster Avenue, about six miles north of Interstate 90.

Lancaster Market will have separate fueling islands to accommodate conventional vehicles and diesel trucks, he says.

The store is scheduled to open in mid-January with 20 to 25 employees, Duvall says.

Young Construction Group of Idaho Inc., of Coeur d’Alene, is the contractor on the project, and Longwell+Trapp Architects PLLC, of Hayden, designed it.

Cory Trapp, a principal at Longwell+Trapp, says he’s working on drawings for an 8,000-square-foot, $1.7 million multitenant structure with up to five retail bays to be constructed just west of Lancaster Market.

Duvall says Young Construction Group also will be the contractor on the multitenant building.

He anticipates construction on the second project will begin in December and will be completed in early summer.

Duvall says he hasn’t secured tenants for the retail building yet.

The site for the projects is on a 5-acre parcel at 266 W. Lancaster, which Duvall bought late last year.

Duvall also owns the Beverage Shack, at 2020 N. Fourth, in Coeur d’Alene; the Hayden Qwik Stop, at 1514 W. Hayden; and the Hauser Smoke Shop, at 26913 W. State Route 53.
