Looks like it will be a beautiful store, at least from the outside:

They used to have several stores not far away, including Hyde Park and Ashland & 47th. I think Albertsons closed those. They have a store in Bronzeville. This new location is not far from U Chicago and could draw a varied clientele depending on how its merchandised.

Do you know when the Hyde Park location opened and closed? I had friends in the mid-1980's - mid-1990's who lived there and constantly complained that the closest Jewel was at Stony Island and 75th.buckguy wrote:They used to have several stores not far away, including Hyde Park and Ashland & 47th.
