Farm Boy, Staples to open in Art Shoppe Lofts on Yonge St

Signs have gone up at 2131 Yonge St where Empire Inc grocery franchise Farm Boy will share the street-level commercial space with a new Staples store. This is the Art Shoppe Lofts and Condominiums between Soudan Ave and Hillsdale Ave. The Sobey’s Urban Fresh location at 710 Mt. Pleasant in the Briton House building has closed. Sobey’s is also owned by Empire Inc and it appears staff will transfer to the new Farm Boy. Speculation among Davisville residents is that the retirement home won’t have a hard time finding a new tenant.
