Original Story:
Malverne will when closes down this week, perhaps as early as Wednesday.
The grocery store's depature will leave Malverne's small business district with a large void. For decades, this commercial space has served as a supermarket. (Many may recall that before it was Associated, C-Town was here.) Do you think another supermarket would fare better or does Malverne need a different type of business?
What do you think should fill this soon-to-be vacant space on Hempstead Avenue?
