Old Sun Fresh on Prairie View
I see some activity at the old Sun Fresh Grocery store. They have up some scaffolding and refaced the upper part a bit with stucco. Anyone know if something is going in there?

Dang, I thought someone would know. I may have to go and talk with the workers tomorrow. I'll post it here.

One of the workers said he thought it was a flooring store going in.

That is super disappointing if true. My parents live right near there and have been excited thinking it was a new grocery store.mshilko wrote:One of the workers said he thought it was a flooring store going in.

Re: Old Sun Fresh on Prairie View
A new grocery store would have been nice, but there is just too much competition and ultimately why Sun Fresh went out of business. There are at least 4 more stores that carry groceries in the local area than when Sun Fresh opened. Wal-Mart, Target, New Hyvee on 64th, Sprouts, etc. So I am actually relieved that it is not another grocery store. Hope they do well.

Liberty supported two stores for 25k. It gained two stores for the next 30k. It gained #5 only with all the apartments.
That area is too low density for five grocery stores.
