Yes, thanks for the update, I've been wondering what is going on there.
The excavator was moved off site a few months ago and then re-appeared very shortly thereafter. Perhaps someone is happy to have a free place to store it.

The folks at the Root Cellar have messaged us regarding the upcoming Prior Street location which has been delayed by quite a considerable amount of time.
The Hillside and Prior location is currently still in the research & development phase as we evaluate the possibilities.Please stay tuned!
We've forwarded a question regarding the possibility of soil conditions causing delays for the opening date of the new location.

.. well, its been 6 months, the excavator has (i think) disappeared, the Root Cellar signs in the windows have also disappeared.. Someone appeared for a couple days a few months ago and threw a more modern facade on the stucco band around the top of the building.. but nothing..
As you appeared to be able to get more out of them than I did when I messaged them awhile ago, Mike, feel like doing a follow-up with them? Gotta figure its cancelled by now, which is too bad..
cakes..

I'd like to know what the layout plans are as I don't see how they will have enough parking space in that location. Especially if they use any parts of the rear lot for outdoor shopping like they do at Blenkinsop.

There has been a lot of activity there lately. Trades have beenn coming and going, there has been work done on the roof presumably the air handlers. A retaining wall has been built where the previous houses were possibly in preparation for a parking lot?
We would love to see this become a Root Cellar still!
l'm pretty sure its no longer going to become a Root Cellar. Possible new retail in the works, can't say what it is at this time though

That's too bad - I would love a Root Cellar type place closer to town.
Please share what you can, when you can Mr. B!

Not enough space for parking and outside produce bins. I would still go to the Blenkinsop store no matter where else they open up

The parking lot has been mostly finished over the past few weeks. While checking out at the Blenkinsop store yesterday it was very busy and one of the owners was on the till I went to so I asked what was happening with the Hillside location. He confirmed that the parking lot was completed and that they are having trouble finding a manager (I was told this months ago as well). So it looks like it WILL be a Root Cellar one day. If anyone knows an experienced grocery store manager who's looking for work, put them in touch. I can't wait for the opening.

Expanding at McKenzie and Blenkinsop

I think a Root Cellar would fit nicely at the Roundhouse development.

I understand the Root Cellar expansion will be for some sort of restaurant, rather than more supermarket.
