I hope it's an urban Fry's. If I wanted to go to Fry's when I lived downtown, I had to go 7th Avenue and Camelback or 20th Street and Highland. Downtown dwellers shouldn't have to drive or take the light rail to access one of this state's primary grocery stores. We don't need any "specialty" grocery stores that will shut down within weeks of opening due to lack of business. The last thing I would have wanted living downtown was some small, overpriced grocery store with a bunch of gourmet items that I had no use for. Open a basic, full service grocery store and let Sprouts come when there's more demand.

Have you actually been to a Sprouts?
It's pretty full on grocery store to me, pretty normal priced...maybe even discounted priced on produce, and has basically everything you could need.
