(For ACME, that's small, but it's obviously quite a bit bigger than the small NYC stores we're also seeing this weekend!) You can check out my previous, very short, post on the store here . It's directly across the street from an equally small Grand Union-turned-Stop & Shop . Now, ACME has announced they're closing this store in early October. So let's take a look at the store before it closes! Note that these pictures were taken back in January. Now, this store was originally an A&P centennial of around 17,000 square feet, and was later expanded by A&P out the front wall. You can clearly see above where the original store ended; produce and the r...
