Guess Who's Coming to the Five Corners

There has been no end of speculation about what’s coming to the Five Corners. After years of deliberation about the development of the site at Palmer Avenue and Heathcote Road, a new 11,000 square foot building is now under construction, with two levels of underground parking.

Throughout the approval process, residents seemed certain that the site would house yet another drug store. The names CVS, Duane Reade and Rite Aid were bandied about by those who were fearful about bringing a large retail chain to the center of Scarsdale.

It turns out we were all fooled … in fact, the space will be occupied by a well-known Scarsdale grocer, one that has been part of the fabric of the community for years. Supersol, now Seasons plans to open in the new building in January, 2013 and will utilize the main floor of the building for a large grocery and café, with the second floor as a kitchen where all of the prepared food will be made.

The main floor will offer kosher meats and poultry, fish, fresh produce, prepared foods, baked goods, a café, and a sushi bar. According to David Gellman, the market will be upscale and top of the line throughout.

Underground parking will be shared with Balducci’s, creating a food destination site for residents of Southern Westchester.

Supersol has recently become Seasons, part of a chain of four kosher markets in Lawrence, Flushing, Manhattan and Scarsdale. Check them out at: http://seasonsny.com/index.html
