You mean on Calgary Trail south of Whyte Ave, in the strip mall north of Save-On Foods?

Happy to have Community Natural Foods as our 22,000sf anchor grocery tenant (which was a black hole after Planet Organic departed 3 years ago) in our Strathcona Town Centre in the Strathcona neighborhood. This is a great brand to have in Edmonton and the community. Thanks to Eric Slatter with Omada Commercial - Edmonton, Arlyn Stoik, Alison Hansen-Carlson with Avison Young | Canada and Jim Gordon and Damon D. Tanzola with Calgary Co-op for getting this deal done! And Kyle Runzer, internal legal counsel, for working through the lease details, you were a huge help 👍🏼 Go Auto Real Estate #realestate #community #canada #edmonton

I wish they would spread out the grocery stores a bit. Community Naturally Foods will be moving in literally right beside 2 other grocery stores.

Agreed. I would've loved to see that No-frills a few block west. Having a grocery south of Whyte, closer to Saskatchewan Drive between Gateway and 99 st would also be lovely. That area is seriously lacking walkable retail options, and it is fairly densely populated, has decent bike infrastructure, etc... TBH I think something like this Community Natural Foods would do well there, considering the demographics.

 

[Edmcowboy11]

Unfortunately there is not much at all available on Whyte or surrounding area to the north to house that size grocery store.

There is a Safeway further west on 109 and Whyte and then something else on 112 Street. However, not much further east until Boonie Doon.

ChazYEG, Has the No Frills closed ... the one that is 1 block West at 10467 80 Ave NW? This: https://goo.gl/maps/p1rw87BB8HMkxHbc9
