Looks like dairy is on the back wall, with frozen in the last aisle. And a nicely updated front end! This store is located at 966 1st Ave, and you can see the exterior here . Photographed July 2019

Our next group of stores will take us the next week or so and will have us returning to Manhattan! I should note that we've already seen many stores in Manhattan, and the other thing that people who are familiar with New York City will notice: my "southern Manhattan" is more accurately the southern half, i.e. everything south of Harlem. We'll more specifically be covering stores in the Financial District, Chelsea , Lenox Hill , and the Upper West Side. We start tomorrow on The Independent Edition !
