Yesterday evening, March 25, 2025, I enjoyed a tour of the Wedgewood Building site of the much-anticipated Electric City Community Grocery, a/k/a the Schenectady Food Coop. The building, located at 277 State Street, at Erie Boulevard, is a registered historic site, and many of its elements are being preserved in the construction of our Community Grocery.

ECCG president Eric Johnson and vice president Richard Mausert hosted the tour of about twenty enthusiastic member-owners and curious neighbors. As usual, Elizabeth Walsh, member-owner and all-around outreach factotum, also joined the tour.

 I hope you’ll come down to 277 State Street (entrance at the rear, off Liberty Street) for one of the few remaining tours that will be available before construction begins in mid-April. See the ECCG website for more information and news, and to learn how to become a member and participate in the crucial Capital Campaign to make this community treassure a reality.

Images from the tour can be seen in this slideshow.
