After nearly two years in business, Food City Market has closed at 85 Avenue D, located between Sixth Street and Seventh Street. (Thanks to the EVG readers for the tips about this.)
We weren't the only ones who found it odd that Food City set up shop just steps away from the Food Emporium on the SW corner of Avenue D and Sixth Street. (And there was a rumor that Food City would merge with the Emporium — but an employee quickly shot that down.)
This space, previously occupied by a Rite Aid, is now available on the retail market. Per the listing: "Ownership will consider logical divisions. Perfect for a laundromat, adult daycare, medical facility, or non-profit." And maybe not a grocery.
