Publix is setting in motion its plans to revitalize Promenade Plaza in Palm Beach Gardens and increase its presence in the area, replacing the original 42,450 square feet courtyard with an even larger 54,964 square feet store. The grocery giant aims to update industry standards, feature expansive product offerings, and continue giving customers an elevated shopping experience, with the demolition set to begin early next year. In addition, traffic will be changed, and neighboring tenants may need to be acquired for this project to bring Publix’s elevation effort to fruition.
The Lakeland-based grocery chain Publix is proud to announce its plans to demolish and rebuild the Publix at Promenade Plaza in Palm Beach Gardens. This move follows a larger pattern of replacing older stores with larger ones featuring wide aisles, modern features, and updated selections. City officials anticipate demolition will begin early next year, allowing Publix to continue providing customers with top-notch service and products.
Publix Expands in Palm Beach County
The Florida-based grocer is proud to announce their model’s implementation in several stores in Palm Beach County, including the recent reopening of the store at Royal Palm Beach and Okeechobee Boulevards. To maximize the store’s efficiency, Publix has taken the initiative to buy out the leases of neighboring tenants to expand the store’s square footage. This will be seen in the Promenade Plaza, where two tenant spaces adjacent to Publix will be demolished to make way for the expansion. Customers can look forward to more variety and convenience when shopping at their local Publix!

The current 42,450 square feet store will be replaced with an even larger 54,964 square feet store. Although some tenants will be affected, Publix wishes to assure the community that the remaining tenants in the plaza can still stay open during construction. Additionally, traffic flow through the plaza will be changed to accommodate the new building.
Permit for Publix Demolition Issued
The City of Palm Beach Gardens announced that a permit for the demolition of Publix was issued on June 26. Despite work not beginning until early 2021, the store is projected to open in the spring of 2025, with its rebuilding bringing changes to parking and landscaping as well as an art requirement, which will be reviewed by the Art in Public Places Advisory Board later.
