The sign is up and the restaurant group confirmed: Shake Shack is opening a Chesterfield location.

Why it matters: There hasn't been any official news about the elusive-with-confirmation-burger chain possibly opening near Chesterfield Towne Center since BizSense reported last summer that planning documents indicated it would be.

The latest: A Midlothian Shake Shack will open this year at 1371 Huguenot Road, a spokesperson confirmed this week.

It'll be the second Shake Shack for Richmond; the Willow Lawn-area location that opened last summer was the first.

There's still not an opening date to share, but the location is actively hiring.

And workers appeared to be putting the finishing touches on the inside this week.
