The latest word out of the under-renovation Pusateri’s flagship store at 1539 Avenue Rd is that the owners hope to have it open again by late in the Spring of this year. That might mean May or early June. It was in August 2015 that a smoky fire hit the high-end grocery. Inspectors and workers are said to be busy making sure the new construction is all up to code. This opening date would place Pusateri’s on a collision course of sorts with Whole Foods in the new commercial centre at 1860 Bayview Ave (at Broadway Ave). Signs proclaim “Opening This Spring” and you may be sure the Whole Foods bosses hope this is true.
I see they’ve managed to include a Shopper’s Drug Mart at the new Whole Paycheck complex on Bayview. Just what was needed. Another location of the greediest CDN corporation. Knowing them they’ll try and open another location at Bayview and Eglinton after the dust settles after the transitway is finished.
