Detroit Update: On the Pistons Moving to Little Caesars Arena, and New Soccer Stadium

I hear you but in fairness, don’t you think all of those are high [over priced?] venues targeted at the well to do new urban types. It’s not like Krogers or Safeway.

Well aren't well to do urban types generally the inhabitants of downtown areas? So it would make sense that the stores that cater to them would be the ones to locate nearby. Not too many Family Dollars next to million dollar housing.

Lowell, Key Foods is as basic as it gets, lower than Kroger for sure. Trader Joe's is a discounter. It has a good reputation [[among some) but it is definitely not a high-end grocer, nor does it try to be one. Whole Foods: hard to make the case that it is overpriced. It is pretty middle of the road these days, and for the products sold, it is competitive.
