Dover location

[Zayre88]

This store is still vacant in 2009.  I don't know why because it was part of the "recent" buildings in Ames portfolio.  It was built as a Zayre in 1985 and has 61,710 SF of space.

Another view of checkout counters. You can see the lower ceiling in this part of picture, the management offices were upstairs in this area.

Good question, at around 62,000 sq.ft, it's a perfect size for a supermarket but Hannaford is right next to it and Shaw's too.

It's too small for Target and Kohl's.  Target has a store in Somersworth and Kohl's has a location in Rochester.  

It's a store size that was perfect for Ames or Bradlees, but today, stores are larger or smaller than that.  They might have to divide it.

This would be a great location for an Ocean State Job Lot or possibly if Mardens of Maine wanted to cross the border into NH this would be a good time.
