It's official! Trader Joe's is coming to Town Center
The company posted on its website that it is opening a store in Town Center, at 220 Constitution Drive. It's going in the former Bed, Bath & Beyond site, in Columbus Village. In January, Armada Hoffler confirmed it found tenants to fill the space, but wouldn't say who they were.
Then, in February, WAVY obtained a copy of an ABC liquor license application filed by Trader Joe's for this location.
There is no opening date yet for the new Virginia Beach location. Trader Joe's said it will continue to post updates on the new store at this link.

Map Shows New Trader Joe's Stores 'Coming Soon'
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. More new Trader Joe's stores are reportedly coming soon, with the company adding 16 new locations on its "Store Openings" list as it continues its nationwide expansion. The new stores spread across 14 states from Arizona to Virginia, highlighting the retailer's effort to extend service to new regions - although in some cases, new stores have opened just across the street from existing ones. Newsweek has been approached the company for comment via email. Why It Matters The sustained expansion of Trader Joe's comes at a time when U.S. consumers are looking for reliable, affordable grocery options, particularly as inflation and changing shopping habits reshape the industry. Unlike major competitors emphasizing automation or self-checkout systems, Trader Joe's remains committed to a people-first, neighborhood store model. The chain is a stalwart for many Americans, with YouGov polling showing it is the third most popular grocery store in the country. What To Know The newest additions to the "coming soon" roster include stores in Arizona, California, Connecticut, Florida, Georgia, Louisiana, Massachusetts, Missouri, New York, Oklahoma, Oregon, Texas, Utah, and Virginia. Some locations - such as La Verne, California, and Peachtree City, Georgia - represent entries into rapidly growing suburbs, while others aim to shore up Trader Joe's presence in established markets. The full list of "coming soon" sites includes: N Bullard Ave & McDowell Rd., Goodyear, Arizona 85395 2330 Foothill Blvd., La Verne, California 91750 801 Bridgeport Ave., Shelton, Connecticut 06484 1511 Cornerstone Blvd., Daytona Beach, Florida 32117 258 City Circle, Peachtree City, Georgia 30269 2428 Napoleon Ave., New Orleans, Louisiana 70115 1165 Needham St., Newton, Massachusetts 02464 201 N Stadium Blvd., Columbia, Missouri 65203 302 NY-25A Miller Place, New York 11764 1451 E Hillside Dr., Broken Arrow, Oklahoma 74012 2083 NE Burnside Rd., Gresham, Oregon 97030 12812 Shops Pkwy, Bee Cave, Texas 78738 8101 Eldorado Pkwy., McKinney, Texas 75070 1895 East Rodeo Walk Dr., Holladay, Utah 84117 4060 Riverdale Rd., Suite B, Riverdale, Utah 84405 220 Constitution Dr., Virginia Beach, Virginia 23462 Trader Joe's operates in 42 states, meaning it does not currently have locations in Alaska, Hawaii, Montana, North Dakota, South Dakota, Wyoming, Mississippi, and West Virginia - but has well over 500 stores in total, with more continuously being added to that list. What People Are Saying Trader Joe's previously told Newsweek: "Since Trader Joe's began in 1967, we have been in growth mode. Some years we grow more than other years, and our goal is always to bring delicious products at great values to as many people and neighborhoods as we can. The best way to do that is to open more stores. All stores coming soon will be listed on our website and all opening date announcements will be listed there as well." What Happens Next Construction timelines will vary across locations, and Trader Joe's has not yet made it clear when customers can expect to see the new stores up and running.

Trader Joe's has added 16 new locations to its list of stores that are "coming soon!" The company operates stores across 42 states, leaving only Alaska, Hawaii, Montana, North Dakota, South Dakota, Wyoming, Mississippi, and West Virginia without locations Nakia Rohde, a spokesperson for the Monrovia, California-based company, said it adds to the "Store Openings" tab on its announcement page "almost every month." The company had announced 21 new locations the previous time USA TODAY surveyed the page in April. Since then, the company has opened six of the previously announced locations, including one in the Sherman Oaks neighborhood of Los Angeles, which is across the street from the already existing Riverside Drive store. Rohde told USA TODAY at the time that the company intends to keep both locations open, saying that the new store "is bigger and has an attached underground parking lot." Where are the new Trader Joe's locations? Here are the latest future locations Trader Joe's has announced:

Barbara Corcoran: If You Want to Be Rich, Follow These Rules
Real estate pioneer Barbara Corcoran says the most successful people she knows all have one thing in common. Barbara Corcoran famously sold the real estate company she founded for $66 million in 2001. Since then, she became an original investor on ABC's "Shark Tank," which is now filming its 17th season, and now makes about $4.5 million a year from her investments. On Tuesday, Corcoran posted on Instagram that, despite accumulating millions, there are some "rules to being rich" that she wishes she had known sooner. Related: Barbara Corcoran Did 'Crazy Things' to Retain Employees, From Hot Air Balloon Rides to a Free Bentley: 'We Had No Turnover' "If you want to be rich, follow these rules," the post begins. Then she lists 11 "rules" that she lives by when building her businesses. Some rules, Corcoran has talked about before, such as not hiring "fancy degrees" and opting for hustle and attitude, instead. Corcoran famously "doesn't look at resumes." Others are new, like what Corcoran says is the "most important part of your budget," what she calls "mad money," or the money "you spend on yourself to feel like a million bucks." Corcoran recommends setting money aside to look the part — in 2023, she told viewers that she spent her first-ever commission check on a $320 peacoat at luxury retailer Bergdorf Goodman, despite not being able to afford it. She said it was the best purchase she ever made. Here are some other rules to being rich, according to Corcoran. Spend less than you make. "You can't grow wealth if you're always playing catch-up." Learn to love rejection. "The most successful people I know all have one thing in common: They spend little time feeling sorry for themselves, and they get right back up. Keep swinging!" Related: Barbara Corcoran Needed to Make Job Cuts. Here's Why She Fired Her Mom First. Start before you're ready. "The best time to move on an idea is the moment you think of it. You don't have to get it right, just get it going." Have a vision of where you want to go. "I saw myself as the queen of New York real estate, clear as day, and that's what I became. If you can imagine it, you can build it."
