In 2018, ShopRite left its location on Healy Boulevard and moved mile farther north on Fairview Avenue to what had been the location of competing supermarket chain PriceChopper. Since then, the old ShopRite building and its vast parking lot have been vacant and fairly untended.
Today Gossips learned from a post on Facebook that the former ShopRite location is to be auctioned next month, July 27-29. The starting bid is set at $750,000. To learn more about the auction, click here and here.

For some reason, the auction brochure claims that this is in the imaginary Core Commercial District (C-C), when in fact there is currently no limitation on what could be built there.
ReplyDeleteWe should just nuke everything to the north of Hudson, bulldoze the wreckage, and give the land to some hippie organic farmers. That entire zone is nothing but a corporate vacuum that sucks up our dollars and sends them off to hedge funds.

DeleteThat location, inside and outside the building, would be the perfect set for a dystopian apocalyptic zombie film.
ReplyDeleteAre the potholes included?
