Grocer, Restaurant, Trendy-in-the-'90s "Surf" Store Opening on State

2008_5_20.sullivan.jpgWe were just wondering what was going to go in at the Sullivan Center (née the Caron Pirie Scott building), and now we know: fancypants grocer Fox & Obel is opening up a 25,000 square foot store at the 1 S. State location. The building will also house a FlatTop Grill (whose name always makes us think haircut, not stir-fry), and a three-floor Billabong store. Billabong? They're still around?

According to site's developers, Joseph Freed and Associates, the center has 250,000 square feet of retail space and 750,000 of office space. The building is also a landmark. [S-T]
