Construction Starts On The Exciting Clifton Park 146 Marketplace Project

In an already very busy area of Clifton Park and Halfmoon, construction is underway on the new 146 project. It's just the beginning of the massive complex.

The supermarket slated to be built will be an anchor tenant, the Healthy Living Market & Cafe in Halfmoon. This grocery store will be approximately twenty-five thousand square feet, and construction is estimated to take eight to nine months.

Healthy Living Market & Café has a store at the Wilton Mall that opened in 2013. It is a Vermont-based supermarket. They hope to hire one hundred employees at the new store.

There are other grocery store options in the area, including Price Chopper Market 32, Hannaford, Trader Joe's, Aldi, Green Grocer, Walmart, and Target. According to the Albany Business Review, Healthy Living offers a unique grocery shopping experience.

This will be the first construction project that will, when completed, be ten buildings on the twenty-acre site near the intersection of Route 146 and Old Route 146 across from Lowe's. The whole complex is called 146 Marketplace. They will have 10,500 square feet of commercial space with nearly 150 apartments, retail space, and more. The project is expected to be fully built in ten years.

Not counting Healthy Living, there will be 55,000 square feet of commercial space in the 10 buildings when 146 Marketplace is fully built over the next decade. About 65% of the space is already leased.

The 146 Marketplace will look similar to Starbuck Island, located across the Hudson River from downtown Troy.
