That Kroger location was constructed fairly quickly. It was definitely one year or less. In late 1999/early 2000 the old Montgomery Wards was still standing [[as Shoppers World, which closed in 1997 or 1998), and the Kroger opened in July of 2001.
BTW, the store officially closed as Kroger in early 2005, so it was open for 3 good years. Per Mike's Fresh Market's company profile they've only been open for 6 years [[which was late 2003). The copyright on their website is also from 2004. So what I presume happened is that Mike's Fresh Market had started the process of buying that store in late 2003, and completed it by early 2005.
