Construction Underway on New Walgreens Off of Lincoln Drive

Construction is now underway for a new Walgreens store off of Lincoln Drive and County Road C in Roseville.

Walgreens will be moving from its current 11,165-square foot space at 1611 County Road C (the Byerly's Shopping Center) into a 14,820 square-foot building.

The new store is being built on the site that was most recently home to a Don Pablo's restaurant. It will include a drive-through lane for pharmacy pick-ups, said Robert Elfinger, a Walgreens spokesman.

Elfinger said Walgreens expects the new store to open this coming November or December, saying the location better suits the retailer.

"We prefer corner locations to better serve our patients and customers," he said today (Monday).
