As part of renovation, the store was expanded from 39,888 square feet to 45,147 square feet. The project involved addition of new departments like full-service meat, seafood and deli apart from a Starbucks coffee bar. Contemporary kiosks have replaced the traditional counter areas found in previous generations of Safeway stores.
The store will showcase Safeway’s dynamic Lifestyle concept with wider array of offerings that will cater to a broader audience. A full-service, scratch bakery more reminiscent of a patisserie, has been featured which will offer an assortment of fresh breads and baked goods.
Renovation project has also incorporated various sustainable features to make it energy-efficient. The use of wood such as mahogany and other natural materials is prevalent throughout the service departments, while recessed energy-efficient incandescent and halogen lighting has been used to establish a warm atmosphere and direct attention to the merchandise within each department.
The 140,000 square foot property is owned by Benenson Capital Partners.
