Food Lion - Huntersville Square

According to the tax website, this Food Lion near downtown Huntersville, north of Charlotte, opened in 1979. It has since been remodeled to include 53k square feet. It serves a fast growing area of the Charlotte region, and in recent years a Harris Teeter and Bi-Lo (right next to each other) have moved in across the interstate. The store was remodeled not too long ago.

I've never heard of a Food Lion that large. It looks huge.

This was one of 2nd phase Food Towns that was later changed to Food Lion. It was really dated when it was remodeled 3-4 years ago, pretty much due to the competition that came from the Harris Teeter and Bilo that opened in Rosedale.

This photo was taken sometime in mid-2004. Also, I have recreated the remodeling banner that was temporarily affixed to the exterior during the remodel. This Food Lion and all others in the Charlotte area held a grand re-opening event in October with the theme: "Take a Fresh Look at Food Lion".

Or maybe I might be wrong about the date.
