115 Skyline Dr, Ringwood, NJ

Original Tenant: A&P
Address: 115 Skyline Dr, Ringwood, NJ
Opened: 1960s
Closed: unknown
Later Tenants: CVS
Photographed: July 2020
Today's snapshot is a quick look at a former A&P, now of course occupied by a CVS. The 16,000 square foot space does not seem to have been significantly altered since its days as an A&P, although some facade details have been removed and a new facade has been built out over the old building. A&P was based out of Montvale just about 12 miles away, but Grand Union out of Elmwood Park, NJ 13 miles away set up shop across the street in a larger location in 1972. We'll be touring the Stop & Shop that replaced that store tomorrow on The Market Report!

  1. Humorously there is a CVS in Ravena, NY that also appears to be a former Centennial A&P, minus the exterior modifications. The irony is the same shopping center also houses a former Grand Union which currently operates as a Hannaford-supplied "Shop 'n Save". Not sure if GU and A&P had any overlap in operating stores in the shopping center though as A&P pulled a lot of stores in the 1970s and 1980s.

    1. Wow, that has to be one of the smallest centennials I've ever seen -- just over 9,000 square feet! And the Grand Union looks fairly large and modern, is it correct for me to assume it was built in the 80s? My gut tells me A&P would've probably pulled out of that tiny location by then, since it doesn't look like the A&P building was ever expanded in any way, but I've been wrong about things like that in the past.

  2. Just an FYI, this is Ringwood, NJ, not Ringwood, NY.

    1. Oh boy, that's quite the oversight on my part. Thanks for pointing it out!
