Whole Foods is closing its store in Chicago's Englewood neighborhood just six years after its opening was celebrated on W. 63rd Street.
The new Whole Foods in Englewood will offer items unique to the South Side store, including banana pudding and bean pies.
First opened in 2016, the 63rd Street grocery store was opened in what was once a food desert, promising to bring healthier food choices to the area. At the time, Mayor Rahm Emanuel and the city committed over $10 million in tax breaks to help make the store a reality. The store employed around 100 people.
Residents said they were particularly angered by the news as it came two days after Whole Foods opened a huge new store downtown at Chicago and State.
