We don’t have a file photo of the Eastside Kroger, and it’s dark and raining outside, so here’s a shot of a random Kroger in Frisco, TX by Wikipedia user Jonesdr77.

The College Station Shopping Center on the Eastside, anchored by a Kroger, will be completely demolished to make way for a new, larger Kroger store if the company’s application to Athens-Clarke County is approved.

Kroger had once indicated that it would move into the vacant K-Mart, but documents filed recently with the ACC Planning Department show that Kroger now wants to completely redevelop the 19-acre site.

The new shopping center would consist of a 116,000 square-foot Kroger (similar in size to those on Alps Road and Highway 29) and 36,410 square feet of other commercial space.

Kroger is also planning to build an 18-pump gas station near the corner of Baxter Street and Baxter Drive, about a half-mile east of its Alps Road location.

Both requests are on the agenda for the Thursday, Jan. 7 ACC Planning Commission meeting.
