Wegmans To Open First New York City Store This Weekend

Remember last month, when people waited in lines wrapped around the building for the grand opening of the Wegmans location in Raleigh, North Carolina?

Welp, Wegmans is about to reach a new milestone when they finally open their New York City store this Sunday!

The anticipation for a Wegmans in the Big Apple has been around for what seems like years and the construction is finally over.

The store will employ 500 people, with 150 full-time workers. The 74,000 square foot store debuts on Flushing Avenue in the Admirals Row development of Brooklyn, according to WKBW.

What's really cool about this location is there's a second-floor mezzanine that will have a bar, serving wine, beer, and other drinks!

There are quite a few transplants in the NYC region that came from Western New York, so I'm sure those people are thrilled that a big piece of home will be coming to their area.
