One thing is for sure something big is in progress. GrassRoutes has talked with various individuals and there are many different stories. We will tell you what we hear. Is it fact or fiction? Well those at the top, it seems, would like to keep it a mystery. |

3. A local contractor is clearing out the land close to Sobey's which can be seen in the background. To the left is where the new Sears building is said to be going. Sobey's is also planning to expand. Some saw it will be expanding into the Bargain Giant's present location but one worker in at Sobey's said it will expand into areas within the store that are not being utilized to their fullest at present.
