One year from today on April 1, 2014 Trader Joe's will open in Edgewater right across the street from Jewel Osco on Berwyn and Broadway in a vacant Blockbuster Video store. The smaller urban concept store will incorporate a two storey parking garage for shoppers who aren't taking the Red Line located less than one block east. [EdgevilleBuzz]
