Safeway will close during construction (other than pharmacy).
Concerns that Loblaws at 16th & Arbutus is too far away as an alternate grocery store.
It had been months since I last checked out Arbutus Shopping Centre so I went by to have a look. Most of the Safeway is gone now and they've built a temporary Bank of Montreal towards the back of where the Safeway was. Most of the rest of the shopping centre is still there although I presume a lot of it has been gutted. The back part of the little mall area is still operational with the liquor store and dance school still open. The Safeway pharmacy is still there and they've made a little store by the pharmacy with a limited selection of products, not including produce or fresh meats.
