Grocery store plan returns to Borders building in Lawrence
Editorials say converting the Borders building at Seventh and New Hampshire into a full service grocery would suit downtown and East Lawrence residents. Checkers owners express interest, while previous plans for a multi story project at Massachusetts faced parking concerns. Land use restrictions exist but cooperation with neighbors is possible. A grocery would revive downtown access and support residential growth.
