Fred Meyer held the official grand re-opening of its Stadium store on West Burnside Street Friday, marking the end of major work on the $30 million renovation and expansion. Ogden, Utah-based general contractor R&O Construction began work on the in September 2013 with the demolition of a former Hollywood Video store on the site, which allowed for the construction of 41,000 square feet of new space.

The project’s architect, Mackenzie, worked with neighbors and city officials to implement design recommendations, resulting in an urban design that includes a sidewalk arcade, more windows than a typical store, a community room, and the retailer’s first green roof. The expansion opened to customers last fall, and聽 final completion of the project is slated for February.
