WATCH: Ganley Site Demolished for New Family Dollar Store
The building, abandoned for a couple of years, was reduced to rubble to make way for a new dollar store at the corner of Grace and Detroit avenues.

Are they closing their store on Madison Ave...just south of this location? Seems pretty close to have stores on both Madison and Detroit in the same general area.

It would make sense to close it. It has been going down hill in the past few years. The place is a mess most of the time. It's like the management never wanted it to succeed.

When is the Getgo going to demolish the old Giant Eagle building at Detroit and Bunts?

From my bathroom window, only a pile of rubble remains. I now have a clear view to Lakewood Garden Center and their colorful adirondack chairs. Not for long, I fear, Family Dollar is near.

Nope. As noted in the video, that's going just across Grace Avenue on the other portion of the Ganley property.

I thought the dollar store was going where the CVS store used to be near the Library.

That's a Dollar General. This is a Family Dollar.
