Actually, the vacant space and the CVS are the old Grand Union space.

Here's the link to page 2 of the Tops Market page.
On 7/11/2006 d_fife had posted two photo's of the former home of Tops Market. Tops had aquired this location from C&S Wholesalers which had purchased the Grand Union stores during the bankruptcy.

The Grand Union of Champlain, NY has been subdivided into a Yankee Dollar and Ace Hardware.
The hardware store has kept the main portion of the former store including both sets of entrys, the arched windows and on the inside the stockroom area that includes the set of doors to the old produce prep room and the main stockroom doors near the former deli area.

The look of this store was pretty classic to Grand Union with the exception of the end walls on each side of the shingled roof line. I angled this photo so you can see how the bricks arch up and out then down to the windows bellow.

A view of the lobby area near the checkouts. This store reminded me a lot of the store in Bennington, VT that is now operating as a Tractor Supply Store.

When was this style built? One of many former grocery stores now an Ace Hardware.

This design was the "new" classic look for them starting in the 1980's with new store openings and remodels.

One of the ones that looked like that on Long Island was the West Islip store. It was retained when Stop & Shop took it over, but I am not sure it is like that anymore. I believe Stop & Shop might have knocked it down recently and built anew.

Here's a picture of the red and white checkouts at the exit of the store. You can see the former red and white floor tile has been replaced here at the checkouts and also through out the store too.
