Fred Meyer Invites Input from Greenwood Community on Redevelopment Plans
Following a well-attended meeting with the Greenwood Chamber of Commerce earlier this month, Fred Meyer has scheduled a community meeting—open to the public—to discuss plans for redeveloping their Greenwood store. On Thursday, July 9th at the Phinney Neighborhood Association, Fred Meyer—along with design firm GGLO and developer Lorig—will present their proposal, answer questions and gather feedback from community groups, business leaders and residents.
The meeting will be held from 6:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. on Thursday, July 9th at the Phinney Neighborhood Association at 6532 Phinney Ave. N in the Community Hall, which is the lower brick building on the site. The first hour will be an open house where people can see design renderings up close and speak one-on-one with members of the project team. The open house portion of the meeting will be followed by a presentation and question-and-answer session from 7:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. Greenwood Chamber President Steve Giliberto will moderate the discussion. Fred Meyer will also provide light refreshments for attendees.
