New Fred Meyer on 164th and Alderwood Mall Parkway in Lynnwood |
There is a new Fred Meyer in Lynnwood opening up Friday Sept. 25 at 2902 164th Street Southwest and I couldn’t be happier! For months the construction has been underway at the Alderwood location on the corner of 164th and Alderwood Mall Parkway for a new shopping center anchored by a spacious 177,000-square-foot Fred Meyer grocery store.
I have often times visited the Fred Meyer on 196th, but it was not a convenient location for me to get to. Apparently, the executives at Fred Meyer were thinking the same thing and filled the grocery store gap along this stretch of 164th.
It is nice to see this sort of project coming together in a time when we definitely need more jobs in the community. The new Fred Meyer expects to employ over 300 people, which explains the very full parking lot I have been seeing there the last few days.
According to the article in the Enterprise about the new Fred Myer, Friday will be a festivity filled day with free doughnuts in the morning and an official cake cutting in the afternoon.
I would like to finish up by saying welcome to the new store, I am sure you will have plenty of customers, one of which will be me!
