'Now Open' Sign Up at New Store in Rochester, MN!

Just in case you haven't heard the news, a store in Rochester, Minnesota has been transformed and now has new inventory AND a new name!

Did I Just See A "Now Open" Sign in Rochester, Minnesota?

You know how you drive pretty much the same route every day to and from work? You sometimes miss out on new things that pop up in the area because you just see the same stuff every day. That is exactly what happened and I had no idea a new store opened up in Rochester. I've been watching for it online but because social media is the way it is, a photo that was posted on April 10th never showed up for me. Good chance you never saw it either.

Back in December, I shared the news that the two Arrow Hardware and Paint stores in Rochester were going out of business and selling everything. At that point, the rumor was that another hardware store would be going in those locations. Dumpsters eventually showed up on site, signage and shelving were taken down, and the rebuild started to happen for two new Burggraf's Ace Hardware stores. One Rochester store already exists and is located in the Barlow Plaza.

Second Location for Burggraf's Ace Hardware is Now Open in Rochester, Minnesota

I took a detour after work yesterday to do a little shopping by the mall to get some new shoes at TerraLocco and happened to see a "Now Open" sign in front of the new Burggraf's Ace Hardware store at 1201 Broadway Ave S, suite 44 in Rochester, Minnesota (Get Directions).

Third Burggraf's Ace Hardware Store is Opening Soon in Rochester, Minnesota

I stopped by the third store location for Burggraf's Ace Hardware in Rochester, Minnesota and it appears that this store isn't quite ready to open but it will be soon. This store is a bit closer to my regular route so I'm sure I'll see when the "now open" sign shows up this time. Once I see that update, I'll have it over on my Facebook page - Jessica On The Radio.
