Walgreens Is Coming To Rochester

Up-to-date real estate market news from Rochester MN REALTORs David and Lois Marris.

Rochester MN will soon have not just one Walgreens Store, but two. Rochester City Council approved a zoning change which allows Walgreens to proceed with their plans to build on the corner of 11th Ave NW and Civic Center Drive. The first Rochester Walgreens store is being constructed on South Broadway near the Olmsted County Fairgrounds and Crossroads Shopping Center.

A second Walgreens is good news for Rochester. We have tried to attract Walgreens for years to no avail. Thankfully, Walgreens has seen the advantages of a Rochester location. We are delighted that the stores are coming at a time when we need the construction jobs and steady employment the national chain will provide our local economy.

Mayo Clinicpatients will also be delighted to hear about Walgreen's coming to Rochester. Many Mayo Clinic patients visit from across the country. Prescriptions have a been an issue for some as they need to fill them both here and in their home town. Prescriptions filled at Walgreens are entered into their company database. This allows a customer to have their prescription filled easily at any Walgreens location across the country. Patients tell us they are looking forward to this added convenience.
