Bucktown's Aldi Will Finally Reopen This Month

Get ready for the Return of the Bucktown Aldi! DNAInfo reports that, on June 15, the store at 1753 N. Milwaukee Ave. will reopen after being closed for more than a year.
The old Aldi closed in March 2016, and was actually demolished, to make room for a new mixed-use development, Centrum Bucktown. A new 18,000-square-foot Aldi will now occupy the first floor of the development, according to Curbed.
Other features of the 606-adjacent development, where rent starts at more than $2,000 a month: a dog run, a Yolk brunch spot, an "[i]nspired lobby space," and "soft-close cabinetry."
I mean... honestly, it sounds like gentrification incarnate, but it also sounds nice. Especially when your next-door neighbor is an Aldi.
We've reached out to Aldi and will update as more information becomes available.
