Our next FLASH BACK post takes us to a replacement Price Chopper in a shopping center in Colonie. All photos were taken on November 17, 2017.
This store (#224, located at 1892 Central Ave.) opened on June 2, 2009, replacing the 1987-built #104 further up front in the plaza (currently Retro Fitness). This store is scheduled for replacement; they will be moving to the former ShopRite at 1730 Central Ave. UPDATE: The exact opening date for this store's replacement is June 14, 2024.
Inside the store, the flooring is concrete except for the main aisles (which are not shown in this set). Also of note is the presence of skylights. These, and a lighting control system allow for the lights to be dimmed whenever daylight is abundant. A gas fuel cell provides up to 60% of this store's power.
Looking from the back, we see the first aisles in front of the blur. As well as main areas of the store, even aisle ways are normally dimmed unless these sections are occupied.
On what appears to be the right-most portion of the store houses frozen foods and "the Kosher Store".
