HTN: New Market Coming to Kenmore Avenue

A former Tops and Vix store on Kenmore Avenue in Buffalo is becoming a PriceRite store this summer. PriceRite parent company Wakefern Food Corporation bought the 40-thousand-square-foot retail site for 875-thousand dollars. The Connecticut-based company will sink another three-million into the conversion of the building. The Kenmore Avenue site became a Tops in the early 1970s, then converted to a Tops-owned Vix Deep Discount drug store in the 80s. Vix closed in 2003.
