NORTH PLAINFIELD, NJ — Wawa's newest location off Route 22 in North Plainfield will host a grand opening of its convenience store and gas station on Nov. 21 at 8 a.m.

Demolition of the former 21,000-square-foot Fabricland building was done in January. Fabricland has since relocated to 270 Route 22 West in Green Brook.

The new Wawa location is located across the highway and near the newly built QuickChek, which opened this past November.
