Demolition on the store earlier this summer to make way for Tritec Real Estate company's plan to bring 291 apartments, 46,000 square feet of retail space and 18,000 square feet of office space at the intersection.

Currently the side of the building facing Main Street is still standing, but as announced not for much longer.
