That...And...The building that will house Whole Foods, also includes a parking deck. I think they’ll be fine.

Interesting. I wonder if this puts to rest rumors I was hearing about WF looking at the 2nd Journal Squared building. Or maybe a 365 would still be a possibility there.

I have been getting Whole Foods mailers pretty much every week for at least a month, despite never really shopping in one. Something must be happening.

The Jersey Journal JERSEY CITY — Whole Foods is eyeing a new location for a Jersey City store after dropping plans to open one near the Grove Street PATH station, sources told The Jersey Journal. The upscale grocery chain is close to finalizing a deal to open in one of Mack-Cali's Harborside buildings, near the Hudson River waterfront, the sources said. More

I used to hope for Whole Foods, but now with 99 Ranch, it has most of the things I need except for cheese and granola.

Well, you can't really buy something that isn't for sale. Whole Foods is not looking to get bought. The *rumor* is that Cerberus might be exploring making a takeover bid for WF. Not quite the same as an outright buy of the company.

What did I say that was inaccurate? A takeover is in fact an acquisition which => buying.

Agreed. Private equity tends to load up the companies with lots of debt, pay themselves a huge fee for providing advice and reduce employee salaries and benefits. The helpful, cheerful employees you see will no longer be so if a PE firm acquires them.

This is not quite accurate. What was revealed is that Albertsons is considering making a takeover bid for Whole Foods. Albertsons is controlled by Cerberus. Jana Partners (a competitor of Cerberus) has also telegraphed similar intentions, going as far as accumulating a 9% stake in Whole Foods. Regardless of who wins out, this is not necessarily good news: these buyout firms can be brutal and vicious in their approach to achieve profitability.

It was announced today that Albertsons might buy Whole Foods. Albertsons also owns Acme. Hopefully this is good news?

yeah, that was kind of my point with Harborside. Its pretty dead on the weekends and thats when markets make a lot of sales. They likely want it to be a busy area 7 days a week which JSQ is. Maybe Sears is busy since its by the mall, but on a sheerly accessible standpoint, its a little awkward for the general public to get to. Though it may be busy enough to keep it alive.

The Sears location is as trafficked as you van get: a mall, with parking on site, as well as being serviced by the light rail and the Newport PATH station is across the street. Have you ever been to Harborside? Because your statement makes no sense... it's packed and crowded during the week from about 8 AM to 6 PM. Come out between 11:30 - 1:30 during the week and you will see that people all along the waterfront and in the Owen Grundy pier enjoying lunch or a midday break. It is also serviced by the light rail, and the Exchange Place PATH station is right next door. On weekends it is not that crowded, but that's mostly because there is hardly anything open down that way. A supermarket like WF could be transformative for the area.

i think JSQ or something close to a PATH station or hub makes more sense. I know they will require parking which will exist as part of the new towers parking garage, but also it needs to be a well trafficked area. I feel like the Sears and Harborside which is dead for most of the week would not benefit WF which needs a lot of constant foot traffic.

I have it on good authority that WF is definitely being wooed by Harborside Financial Center. I had heard the same as seagull (the Metropolis deal is dead) and that WF is shopping for another location.

I doubt they would be planning a second location when the first isn't even a done deal yet. Also if you go here http://www.wholefoodsmarket.com/stores/list/development you can see what stores are coming first.
This list http://www.wholefoodsmarket.com/company-info/stores-development is where Jersey City is listed with a ton of other stores. The company is currently in turmoil and the activist shareholders are demanding change.
