Default Looks like the End Has Come For The Lake Sumter Landing Winn-Dixie

According to the other Villages news source ALDI is reducing the beautiful Winn-Dixie store to about 60% of its floorplan, converting it to an ALDI footprint. Nothing was shown in the published plans of what will be done with the other 40% of the existing building.
In my opinion, too bad for us Villagers. To me, from the few times I've been in an ALDI's, they seem to be one step up from a gas station convenience store: limited, cluttered, grubby, disorganized and a poor selection of quality healthy food. But I guess cheap likes cheap. However, I can't argue with their success.
