Red River Co-Op Nears Completion at Seasons in Tuxedo

For the last ten years construction has continued unabated at Seasons of Tuxedo. IKEA opened up in 2012.

In 2017 Outlet Collection mall opened up. And ever since then it has been building every year. Ten years ago there was no housing here at all but now there are a few thousand units. In the background you can see a 55 Plus apartment under construction.

What has been missing to this point in a grocery and pharmacy. That all changes soon as Red River Co-Op Grocery nears completion.
This is a day before the Red River sign went up in between rains.
There are a number of grocery stores very close to homes and apartments but we have never seen a mall ensure housing was on the same property as we have seen with Seasons of Tuxedo. The Outlet Collection has housing directly across the street and the numbers of people living within walking distance of the doors increases every month.
In addition, hotels are right on the property such as Hyatt Place seen across from Red River Co-Op Grocery.
A great deal of work has been done to put trees and landscaping in, In the near ten years of work that has been done, you can really see the difference, Having just seen Unicity, the contrast is stark on what nearly no trees looks like.
The Rec Room is right across from the Red River Co-Op Grocery as well. Like a lot of places, it has been in near shut down since it opened. It almost needs a re-opening to capture those early days.
I will keep my eyes on the grocery as it gets ready for opening day. The surge if grocery stores being built, renovated and all the hiring has been a bright spot in the economy,
