Safeway closes old store, opens new store

Safeway’s new store opening today could be the first supermarket in Montana to be Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design-certified.
Located at the northeast corner of 19th Avenue and Main Street, the $12 million, 58,000-square-foot store opens at noon.

“It’s designed to use at least 17 percent less energy than an ASHRAE-baseline building,” Safeway spokeswoman Sara Osborne said, referring to a LEED standard set by the American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air Conditioning Engineers.
