Wegmans, the grocery chain known for its passionate fans and submarine sandwiches, will open its first Manhattan location in the space formerly occupied by the Astor Place Kmart

Now, we have an answer, and the answer is Wegmans. The Rochester-based regional grocery chain known for its passionate fans and its submarine sandwiches is set to open its first Manhattan location in the now-vacated space sometime in “the second half of 2023,” according to an official announcement. This is big news for Manhattan Wegmaniacs, grocery superfans who, until now, have had to make do trekking to the Brooklyn Navy Yard for their Wegmans house-brand pan-seasoning flour . Of course, they could order their groceries — the store delivers cross-borough via Instacart — but that is not the true Wegmans experience, which involves wandering the aisles in a fugue state for many hours and then perhaps eating a hamburger.
“We are so excited to bring Wegmans to Manhattan. This is something we’ve been dreaming about and working toward for a long time,” said Colleen Wegman, president and CEO of Wegmans Food Markets, in a statement. She did not clarify whether it will also be haunted.
