Stuy Town grocery starting to look more Whole Foods-y

There's noticeable progress at the incoming Whole Foods Market Daily Shop at 409 E. 14th St. between Avenue A and First Avenue.

We have entrances...
... and more shelving...
As previously reported, Whole Foods Market is opening a smaller-format store, Whole Foods Market Daily Shop, in this space. No word yet about an opening date, other than some time this year, which narrows it down to April-December. 

Last Fall, Beam Living shared the following email with StuyTown residents about what to expect: 
This store will be one of the first locations of the new Whole Foods Market Daily Shop — a recently announced quick-shop concept from the grocer. Whole Foods Market StuyTown will provide a convenient option for grab-and-go meals and snacks, weekly essentials, and the wide range of fresh, seasonal produce that Whole Foods Market is known and loved for. This location will also feature Juice & Java, which provides coffee, tea, fresh-pressed juices, smoothies, sandwiches, soups, and desserts. 
You can read this EVG post for more details. 

NYC's first Whole Foods Market Daily Shop opened at 1175 Third Ave. on the UES last fall.

Associated closed here in December 2019. Joseph Falzon, the store's owner, said that a confluence of factors had cut business nearly in half.

    The foot traffic is going to be insane on the north side of 14th once this thing opens.
