Wednesday we took a look at a Price Chopper store that missed the compilation post The Good, Bad, and Ugly of 2019. Today's post shows another Price Chopper located across the river from the previous one, however this one has closed since the store was photographed. This store was also photographed on September 3, 2019.
Another thing before we start: to keep the post free of clutter, there will be no cart tax; rather you can see the rest of this store's shopping carts here, here, here, here, and here.
An almost-full view of the exterior. The Price Chopper space was originally built circa 1976, and was certainly expanded given this glass-and-pillar facade. The glass front lacks a byline, a rare feature also seen on the Vails Gate store. The space to the left of the facade was a pharmacy space, last anchored by Rite Aid, and whose entrance was bricked in after the exterior was repainted from grey to this brown color. This store closed on February 29, 2020 and was last occupied by Troy Waterfront Farmers Market for a short time after Price Chopper left.
As this is a store from the 1970s, the lighting consists of long rows of generic suspended fixtures.
A look into a frozen foods aisle showing blue tile grid.
Fresh dairy along the right-hand wall. Bread is to the left, a feature seen in older stores/layouts.
Fresh produce area, with black tile grid.
Looking at these two pictures, it appears the produce area is an expansion to the original store. Also note the rows of lighting are clustered together more closely in this section than in the rest of the store.
Deli in the back right corner of the store.
