• Discount Grocery Giant Aldi Eyes Albertville Property (northwrightcounty.today) — Albertville is on track to get its own Aldi, after the City Council approved a plan review for a new 21,000-square-foot store near St. Albert’s Cemetery at Mackenzie Avenue NE and 60th Street NE. The project shares a parcel with a planned car wash and sits across from the future Costco in Otsego, with Aldi aiming to open around the same time.
