Hi there,
I sent a note to the journalist calling for a correction to the piece. I
also pointed her to the developer's website where it clearly states that
Riverdale Park is the location where Whole Foods is being developed. I did
let her know that she may receive a few more emails from residents who
noticed the inaccurate citation. :)
