They did a lot of work to prepare and expand the space, which is now ready for Sobeys to move in, as far as I can tell. So it should take a few more months.
It is a mystery why the first grocery store didn't seek to expand to pre-empt this. The whole retail concourse needs to upgrade and expand to accomodate Aura's future residents. As it is the exisitng grocery store has been congested for ages.
Looks like the store will be opening sometime in August.
Is that the Metro store just changing names or a whole brand new store?

Dominion/Metro has been congested since the day it opened! It's been a huge success, far outperforming their year one sales targets. Sobey's will give Metro a good run for it's money, competition is good.
I'm pretty sure the a few blocks north at Breadalbane St. is open 24 hours, so I'd think College Park would be too.
