Pathmark and A&P to Close

pathmarkAccording to Greenburgh Town Supervisor Paul Feiner, the A&P, which filed for bankruptcy protection late last year, will close 32 stores, including four in the New York City area. Pathmark on Central Avenue in Hartsdale and the A&P on Tarrytown Road are among the casualties. Town officials will be working with the landlords of these large spaces to attract new tenants.

However, residents still have many good shopping options. In addition to the large ShopRite that recently opened south on Central Avenue, locals will soon have yet another market as Stop & Shop is planning to build a super store on Route 119 at the Tarrytown border. The Greenburgh Town Board approved their application on February 15. So even with the loss of Pathmark and the A&P on Route 119, price conscious food shoppers will have many options including ShopRite in Scarsdale and White Plains, Stop & Shop in White Plains and Tarrytown as well as the A&P on Central Avenue.
