Community, by Walgreens received its certificate of occupancy last month and is now completing its 2,000-square-foot space in Grand Rapids, at 555 Michigan St. NE, according to Third Coast Development Principal Max Benedict. Community, by Walgreens is a “true pharmacy” and not a convenience store, offering prescriptions and select specialty medical products and not household staples, such as groceries and bathroom products. The Walgreens concept is the retail tenant in one of two mixed-use projects at Michigan Street NE and Union Avenue NE by Grand Rapids-based Third Coast Development.
