Construction beginning on a new Wegmans is big real estate news and bigger news for finicky local grocery shoppers. In that regard, today’s announcement from the legendary grocer’s construction company should be making the people of Raleigh, North Carolina, very happy.
Williams Company Southeast reports that it will break ground this month on a 120,000-sq.-ft. Wegmans at Midtown East, a new center being developed by Regency Centers in partnership with ITC holdings near Raleigh’s downtown area.
The 22-acre property on the east side of Wake Forest Road is a mixed-use project that will include 189,000-sq.-ft. of retail and a 154-room hotel when completed. An opening is scheduled for spring 2019.
Wegmans currently operates more than 90 stores in six states: New York, Pennsylvania, Maryland, New Jersey, Massachusetts, and Virginia.
