After being among the many businesses to sustain flood damage at Eastgate Crossing in July, the Chapel Hill Trader Joe’s store is officially open again as of Monday afternoon.
A Kite Realty spokesperson, who manages the shopping center, confirmed the opening to Chapelboro on Monday, with the doors re-opened to a handful of excited customers at 4 p.m. The popular grocery store chain had been closed since July 7 — the day after historic flooding from Tropical Depression Chantal’s rains filled the parking lot and businesses at Eastgate Crossing.
