Big news was announced by the LaGrange Economic Development Authority on Friday, July 1st. A new Publix in LaGrange has been confirmed as the rumored “anchor grocery store” for Merganser Commons at Hills and Dales Farm!
Publix in LaGrange
The new Publix in LaGrange will actually be the second location for the supermarket in town. The original LaGrange Publix is located in LaGrange Plaza at 139 Commerce Ave.
As for the up-and-coming location, it will be in Merganser Commons, just off Vernon Street at Hills and Dales Farm Road. The new development is currently under construction.
Once the shopping center anchored by the new Publix in LaGrange is complete, it will cover about 67,000 square feet. The Publix Super Market will take up about 46,791 square feet of that space. That leaves more than 20,000 square feet for additional retail and restaurant space.
Merganser Commons at Hills and Dales Farm is expected to be completed sometime next year. For more information about the development, call (678)-460-3122.
