While there could be other more "ideal" locations, a 6 floor mixed use building with an urban format grocer would be good here as it would serve that neighbourhood plus downtown well.
If we're talking ideal locations for a grocer in the downtown core, why not rework Market Square? Central, next to LRT, existing parking structure, and not well utilized.
Mind you, it's been years since I've been in Market Square so I don't remember much about the interior layout or whether it's so active now. But the location is absolutely ideal. So is King/Victoria, again due to proximity to LRT in both directions, but then you face potentially unnecessary competition with Central Fresh.
