Acme – Woodcliff Lake, New Jersey

Acme definitely took a chance on this one! Less than two months to go until the opening of the Montvale Wegmans just a short drive away. Acme must be feeling pretty confident. The store has been beautifully transformed with the Quality Built décor.

Interesting covered walkway extending through the parking lot...




What a mess. Can't Acme spring for enough paint to cover the entire paneled section? The whole exterior could use a fresh coat. Such a contrast to the beautiful interior...






Starbucks has been located here since the A&P days.


Could someone confirm what décor package A&P left behind at this store? No clues remaining of any of the A&P's fresh remodels.








Large organic grocery section between Produce and the Bakery.


Acme got lucky with the white tile in the Deli. A&P's yellow tile from the first round or fresh remodels is not as good of a match to Quality Built.








All new tables and shelves in the Bakery. These were recently put into all of the Acmes in my area.












Similar funky ceiling that we saw at the Fort Lee store.




Woodcliff Lake did not get the "This is your Acme" sign. Wonder why. There is plenty of wall space throughout the store.






Acme's double-wide refreshment aisle! These photo were taken back in the Spring which is why you may see some Monopoly signage.










This store actually had enough registers open!


The shelf-checkout grave yard. I believe Customer Service was located to the left originally. A&P moved it to the middle of the front-end...













Wegmans is opening a 108,000 square foot store just across the Parkway from the Acme. A&P sued the town of Montvale, home of their corporate offices, to stop construction of the store. They failed and now it will be Acme's problem. For a glimpse of the Wegmans under construciton, please click here.
