Under Construction
SET 4 – Colony Crossing Kroger, Pre-Remodel
Wrapping everything up for this series, as promised, here’s a look at that expansion space, with a good view of how everything looks behind the construction fencing. Those tarps block some of our view, but are still surprisingly see-through, and I think I managed to stitch together two separate images into one mostly seamless photo pretty well here! At this point in time (August 2020), post-demolition of the shopping center stores, this area was still just in dirtwork mode. But the actual construction wouldn’t take too long to start up in earnest, and the grand reopening of the store – following completion of the expansion, as well as the full-store remodel to Artisan – took place just about a year later, in late August 2021.
That linked video gives you a bit of a sneak peek around the store for those of you who are antsy and impatient (!), but otherwise, be sure and stick around for my full post-remodel stour in the hopefully not-too-distant future! Artisan has not made its debut on my photostream yet, but it will very soon. I still have one more store I want to take y’all too in the meantime, though (rather than just following the same 3 or 4 stores pre- and post-remodel over and over and over), so we’ll head there next: be sure to leave any guesses in the comments!
NEXT TIME – fast-forwarding to our next HLT remodel visit…

These places are public so these photos are too, but just as I tell where they came from, I'd appreciate if you'd say who :)
