2013_12_2Marianos.JPG It looks like those worried about losing their local grocery store with the closure of Dominick's are in luck. Mariano's Fresh Markets will soon be moving in. Crain's Chicago reports that Milwaukee-based Roundy's Inc., the parent company of Mariano's have agreed to buy 11 current Dominick's stores in Chicago.

It was announced in early October that Dominick's parent company would be leaving the Chicago market and a month later that all unsold stores would close Dec. 28. No word yet on if current Dominick's employees will stay on staff at these locations. We're glad the buildings are being bought up and will be run by one of our favorite grocery stores to shop at in the city.

The 11 locations, as reported by Crain's, are the following:


• Park Ridge: 1900 S. Cumberland Ave.
• Western Springs: No. 14 Garden Market Street
• Chicago: 3145 S. Ashland Ave.
• Chicago: 2021 W. Chicago Ave.
• Northfield: 1822 Willow Rd.
• Westchester: 3020 S. Wolf Rd.
• Buffalo Grove: 450 Half Day Rd.
• Chicago: 5201 N. Sheridan Rd.
• Gurnee: 6655 Grand Ave.
• Aurora: 3025 E. New York St.
• Shorewood: 950 Brook Forest Ave.
