Whole Foods

Somewhere out west.

Whole Foods have been looking into coming to CNY.  With rival Trader Joes now open in DeWitt, they may up the ante now so here's where "Whole Pay Cheque" (as some may call them) should consider if not downtown Syracuse:

deWitt, NY 5 (former Shoppingtown to become District East in 2025-26; or former Bed, Bath & Beyond in Marshalls Homegoods Plaza, pictured below)

Liverpool, NY 31 (former Price Chopper as of 19/4/24, COR Plaza)
Ithaca, NY 13/34/96 (former Tops)
Auburn (Fingerlakes Mall, NY 5 & US 20)
Fulton, NY 481 (former kmart)

New Hartford (former Macys at Sangertown Square on NY 5 & 5A)
North Syracuse, US 11 and I-81 (Northern Lights; former Staples, Michaels, Media Play, Christmas Tree Shops or TJ Maxx)
Canandaigua, US 20 & NY 5

Horseheads (former Ames)

Watertown, NY 3 (Salmon Run Mall; former Christmas Tree Shops)

Cortland, NY 281 (former kmart)

UPDATE: amazons purchase may move them to open more stores.

Fantasy location in deWitt

Stewarts Shops

Fort Edward location.

With the new Stewarts Shops store in Liverpool now open for business there are a number of spots they could open as their footprint in CNY is limited at best compared to the Hudson and Mohawk Valleys.  Here's where they could go since Sen Schumer is trying to get closed stations to reopen:

Chittenango, NY 5 & 13 (former Sunrise)
Marcellus, NY 174 (former AOK)
Onondaga Hill, outgoing Byrne Dairy once they can open up the road (NY 175)

Elbridge, NY 5
Auburn
Oswego (east side), NY 104 (confirmed)
McKownville (Albany), US 20
East Syracuse (Carrier Circle), NY 298 & 635 (former Sunoco)
Mattydale
North Syracuse (Bear & Buckley Roads opened mid-late 2016)
Cicero, US 11*
Baldwinsville, NY 31 & 370
Canastota, NY 13 (former Sunoco/ExpressMart)
Syracuse (Thompson Road), NY 635 between former Tim Hortons and JPW Riggers
