History
The Hadley Corner location was previously a floral store with a large greenhouse, but that had been defunct for many years. The shopping center was developed by New England Retail Properties Inc. Aldi (the supermarket chain) purchased a 2-acre (8,100 m2) land parcel for $1.55 million for a new store. Construction commenced in the summer of 2010. The store is expected to open in the fall of 2010.
