Good afternoon Lower East Siders! Aren't you ready to celebrate the rich history, character, and personality of your storied neighborhood?!
Well, you're in for a treat!
Trader Joe's has decided that they do not have enough locations! Next stop: 145 Clinton Street.
According to Time Out, this location will be taking up about 30,000 square feet, making it the LARGEST Trader Joe's that this city has ever seen! Oh, hell yeah!
This will be the sixth Trader Joe's that has graced Manhattan with it's presence.
But wait, there's more!
The company has also announced that there is a seventh location in the works in... drum roll please... BROOKLYN! You'll have to wait till 2017 for that one to open, but just know―it's happening!

We are still unsure of one little (but very important) detail. It has not yet been confirmed if either location will include a wine store...YIKES! Time will tell.
But in the meantime, pull out those reusable bags (are you a New Yorker if you don't own them??), make sure you remember your headphones so you can block out the noise of other people grocery shopping, and make sure to grab a jar of their famous cookie butter on your way out!
