your schtick gets old. it's you and your downtown living against the world.
meiners was a specialty market, it was a compliment to places like target and hyvee. its closing isn't unique to the plaza, small grocers have been eliminated everywhere. you should remind yourself of that the next time you walk the nice new aisles of your downtown price chopper.
meiners space has failed so many times.. how many times would you guess? let me tell you. meiners was in that space for a decade. before meiners, that space was filled by muehlbach's west, another small, specialty market, for 62 years. after meiners closed, guess what went in? ingredient.
3 businesses ~80 years.
but ya plaza residents just don't buy into the city life concept and end up driving to price chopper every chance we get. rough ridin' idiot.
