Snapshot: ALDI - Stony Point, NY

ALDI Opened:  2013 Previous Tenants:  Grand Union (closed 2001) Location:  156 S Liberty Dr, Stony Point, NY Photographed:  June 2, 2021 Stony Point, NY is a small town just north of Haverstraw and West Haverstraw along the Hudson River. It's home to two supermarkets these days, although for a long time it had one and then none, and then one again. Grand Union built a store here around the 1970s, occupying around 35,000 square feet along route 9W then closing by 2001. I'm not sure whether it ever became a C&S-owned Grand Union Family Markets but by 2008 , it had closed either way and the space was vacant.

This store was built just behind a former Grand Union of half its size, part of which is now an ALDI . This is one of the nicer Inserra stores I've been to, and I think even though the decor is going on 15 years old at this point it still looks really good. For the most part, too, the store has been maintained exceptionally well (with a few exceptions) -- a big difference from nearby Garnerville , which opened as a ShopRite just five years before this one. The grand aisle is on the left side of the store, with bakery in the front left corner and deli and seafood on the left si...
