Sushi Serving Walgreens Coming to Broad Street


Walgreens have been taking over Borders locations across the country and HughE Dillon has the details on mega-Walgreens going into the former Borders at Broad and Chestnut. This Walgreens will have a prepared food section, yogurt and juice bar, gourmet coffee and pastries and even a sushi bar. What might be most interesting and would raise this project from “meh” to “oh wow,” is the section on the ground floor labeled wine and beer. We imagine this is an oversight in the architect’s plans but we can dream of a day where there will be a place in Center City Philadelphia where you can pick up some food,a six-pack of beer, a bottle of wine and even your prescription drugs, all under one roof.

It’s just too crazy to be true.
