First thing: hannafords is going into the site near the cinema ..I knew this 2 months ago but i can't tell what i know .they have big Lawyers !.actually part of the building will be 2 stories so as not to waste office space and lunch room space on the lower level.
second. I don't know this as a fact but i worked for M.B. for many years and if you look at the weekly flyers you will see that they are an exact match of what Artie T Demoulas and Artie s Demoulas does ...I think they have the same company printing the flyers ,,so if M.B doesn't own the entire Jackson star In Meredith ,and the entire complex,, it is only a matter of 6 months..I think It has already happened ,under the table ,,,but this is a gray area ...they may be sitting on their hands just waiting ,,,remember....any flies on the Demoulas family are paying rent ....you need to know how the Demoulas family works,,,Jackson Star has recently opened a new concept store near their home base which is milton mass /chestnut hill mass...upscale groceries and high end stufff,,,they see the writing on the wall..The only reason Shaws is not in Meredith already is because the only piece of real estate worth anything is only 4 acres and they need that much just for parking,,,their buildings average 60,000 sq ft which is 1 and 1/2 acres just for the building or more ... Just sit and watch what happens in meredith in the upcoming 18 months ...it will make your head spin
