LONG BEACH : Wrigley Area May Get Full-Service Market
The Wrigley neighborhood may get a long-awaited full-service supermarket.
Salt Lake City-based American Stores Co. plans to build a 60,000-square-foot Lucky store near Willow Street and Long Beach Boulevard as part of an 11-acre retail development in the low- to middle-income neighborhood. A Sav-on drugstore also would be included.
American Stores has been given the exclusive right to develop the land, which is owned by the city and the Long Beach Unified School District, but the deal is not final, said Ruth T. Mizobe, a city project manager.
The city’s Redevelopment Agency still has to come to a financial agreement with American Stores, and the Long Beach school board must approve the sale of the four acres it owns.
