DALLAS — Whole Foods spokesman Scott Simons released three renderings of the new Whole Foods Market that is going into Lakewood.
"While extremely minor adjustments may be made, these images are extremely close to what the final store façade will look like. Keep in mind they are hand watercolor renderings, so the colors show as a bit washed-out.
We are punching holes in the walls to create a lot more natural light, adding dozens of skylights and creating a new façade on the building. The main entranceway will be relocated toward the right side of the building. Just to the left of the main entranceway we’re installing a water feature to enhance the approach to the new Lakewood store. (The water feature shows up well in Rendering #2.)
What this rendering doesn’t show is how amazing the store will be on the inside, but I unfortunately can’t share specifics at this time for competitive reasons. We’ll share in-store specifics about a month from the opening. I can also share that we’re shooting for a LEED-certified remodel and we’re exploring all kinds of environmentally-sensitive solutions for the store. We’re also renovating the existing landscaping to enhance the neighborhood, among other nice surprises.
We are still set for a January 2009 opening of our Lakewood store and have finalized interior plans. Interior demolition is still set for right after Memorial Day weekend."
