According to AFB, maybe not really "that" recently built, but certainly close to that with some unusual cases.klkla wrote:Wow. That's interesting. I didn't realize they had tore down such recently built Albertson's and then built totally new stores on the property. That seems really expensive. How many locations did they do this at? Which locations?pseudo3d wrote:Publix has gone so scorched-earth in Florida that they'd operate stores across from the street from each other, and has such rigid square footage ideas that they've torn down '90s-era Albertsons stores for slightly smaller Publix stores.
#4202 3700 4th St N St. Petersburg FL - 1970s-era Skaggs Albertsons store but remodeled and expanded in 1998, Publix bought in 2008, tore it down, and rebuilt it--all while keeping a store open across the street
#4333 2381 W. State Road 434 Longwood FL - Late 1970s Albertsons that Publix bought in 2008. In 2013, it was completely torn down for a new store that was about the same size if not smaller
#4374 3838 Britton Plaza Tampa FL - 1989 Albertsons sold to Publix in 2008, torn down in 2015 for slightly smaller store to fit Publix standards
#4428 3521 Thomasville Road Tallahassee FL - Opened 1996 in a former Kmart(!) that closed in early 1995 (facade obviously got slight renovation). Closed in 2008 and torn down by Publix in 2009.
