The Market Report

Price Chopper Open: ca. 2000-2023 Previous Tenants:  none Later Tenants:  Market 32 (2023- ) Location:  1025 Pennsylvania Ave, Matamoras, PA Photographed:  February 3, 2021 Welcome to what I believe is our second Price Chopper tour! We saw one about thirty miles south along the Delaware a while ago , and while this store is not nearly as new and nice as that one, it's definitely still a pretty solid supermarket. In anticipation of the opening of the nearby ShopRite in Matamoras in late 2021, this store was converted to the higher-end Market 32 banner , with an attractive but relatively simple version of the Market 32 interior .

Original Grocery Tenant: Grand Union Address: 111 Hulst Dr, Matamoras, PA Opened:  1993 Closed:  2001 Later Tenants:  Grand Union Family Markets (2001-2004) Photographed:  February 3, 2021 Yesterday we saw a former Grand Union that has remained a supermarket since, and today, we're going to check out one that closed almost 20 years ago. The Westfall Town Center was originally built with a 115,000 square foot Kmart and a 40,000 square foot Grand Union. The latter was subdivided in 2004 with multiple tenants including a movie theater, and the former was subdivided in late 2021, with 73,000 square feet of it going to ShopRite. That replaced the now-closed Montague store  just two miles east across in New Jersey. Tomorrow we're headed to the other supermarket in Matamoras on The Market Report , which is also our last Pennsylvania store!
