So many new businesses opening in the past year has changed the face of Seymour.
One such business is across the street from Food City. The storage units that have been on Chapman Highway for years next to McDonalds, have been removed to make way for a new business.
The building is next. It's in the process of being dismantled.
The property was purchased by Lora Parton, owner of Sevier Pawn and Loan.
Parton plans to construct a multipurpose building on the site.
"I want to make the building so that it can be used for other businesses as well," Parton told the Seymour Herald.
That's just one of many changes that have contributed to Seymour's growth.
For years the community has wanted good restaurants to open their doors in Seymour.
As a result, Krystals, Sonics, and Zaxbys have placed their mark on Seymour.
A surprise to the community was the Starbucks location on Chapman.
According to some local bankers, there are other big surprises on the horizon for the ever growing Seymour Community.

Wow! What a really insightful and informative column. I did like this line, "For years the community has wanted good restaurants to open their doors in Seymour."
When everyone gets all the fastfood joints and banks that can be built on Chapman Hwy., I wonder if they'll start bitching about traffic?!
Good point, "good restaurants" seems to be a oxymoron here and the local bankers are predicting "big surprises" Like another Wal Mart or Home depot rofl!
Seymour needs to have more character......must we have more big names coming in here to make us look like every other sell out city in America? How can we retain some local character here! Lets not all wish for another national chain to come riproaring onto our little piece of heaven here. Ugh.
