GASTON AVENUE NEWS:
From “The Dallas Morning News” – The Fresh Market is the latest grocer to enter the Dallas area. It tries to create a European market feel with classical music playing, hanging scales in the produce section and checkout lanes under a wooden canopy. It stocks specialty groceries, fresh meats, fish and produce and has an extensive deli, bakery and bulk food section. The first store is a 24,000 sq. ft. one at the corner of Gaston Avenue and Garland Road. A second store will open in Turtle Creek Village in the spring.
