• This S.F. space has sat empty for nearly a decade. It's about to become an Asian megastore (sfchronicle.com) — A massive T&T Supermarket is slated to open in Newark in winter 2027, taking over the former Macy's and becoming California's largest Asian grocery store. While the article focuses on San Francisco's new T&T location and permitting reforms, Newark residents can look forward to a huge East Bay hub for Asian groceries, prepared foods, and specialty produce within a couple of years.
