The address of the former Borders store in the old Bultman funeral home on St. Charles Avenue has been added to the website of Fresh Market as “Coming Soon,” and our partners at WWL-TV have confirmed that the upscale grocer will be the site’s next tenant.
The store’s promised amenities include an “old-style butcher shop,” fresh seafood, produce, fresh baked goods, a “European delicatessen,” imported cheese, gourmet coffee and other offerings.
My email inbox is on fire- since this was posted! everyone in the neighborhood is very excited about this!
Fresh Market kinda sucks. It’s a smaller, more expensive version of Whole Foods (yes, it’s possible). What this town needs is a Trader Joe’s.
Amen Frank! TJ’s would be a great addition just about anywhere in New Orleans.
The biggest question I have about this site is about that tiny parking lot in back. What’s that going to do to traffic and parking in the area?
Whole Foods Uptown has a significantly bigger lot and that’s still a cluster…
Has construction started?
