The Potrero View

In the background, the Good Life Grocery on 20th St., one of the businesses affected by Whole Foods

The Potrero View, one of the city's best neighborhood newspapers, reported in their January issue that the new Whole Foods store at 17th and Rhode Island is hurting neighborhood businesses. According to the story, restaurants, gorceries and delis saw declines when the giant supermarket opened in September. It goes on to say that some are seeing sales recover "now that 'new and different' is over."

The Potero WF is part of a mixed housing and retail development that takes up an entire city block. It includes 100 spaces of free parking, a valuable commodity in the neighborhood, and offers the usual WF mix of groceries, deli foods and lifestyle crap like clothing, yoga mats and CDs. (I've seen this mix criticized, but in fact, Rainbow Co-op does the same, and in fact seems to have even more non-food items.)
