[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m always confused about people saying how much we need a grocery store and amenities there. I live three blocks away and few very vey well covered with nearby choices:

Grocery stores: wagshals literally right there, Whole Foods within a mile, Giant within a mile, Rodman’s for some cheaper groceries a little bit over a mile, and a second Whole Foods a little over a mile.

Target coming within one mile.

Other things literally right there: Restaurants, pizzeria, Starbucks, Compass coffee, Wells Fargo, gas station, CVS, and building with a variety of medical and dental services.

Within ~one mile: Lots of restaurants of all variety, wine/liquor, tdbank, toy stores, karate for kids, ballet for kids, more banks, pet supply stores, massage, nails, and shopping mall.

And you walk to those grocery stores and restaurants that are a mile away?

Assuming you and everyone else drives do you think that is a good thing?[/quote]

Well, I walk to and from the metro everyday, so yes, when I need a couple things from Whole Foods, I grab them on the way home and walk back. If I’m already home, generally no. But i also drive to Wagshals and CVS, if I have anything more than a bag to carry. If there were a grocery store at the Superfresh site, i can guarantee I would be driving there at least 9 out of 10 times despite it being three blocks away for two reasons. One, if I have as many groceries as I normally do leaving a grocery store, I usually can’t physically carry them all across the street nevertheless a few blocks without a hassle, if at all. Second, most of the time, I have at least one of my young kids with me when grocery shopping (like many in the neighborhood) and no way am O trying that without a car. [/quote]
