We snapped this photo of Coronado Pharmacy at 918 Orange Avenue last weekend. We tried calling the store, but the voicemail box was full and we were unable to get any additional information.
About a month ago, we snapped the below picture when we noticed the CBRE ‘for lease’ sign on top of the building:
We have received tips of a Walgreens going in at the old Petco store location at 925 Orange Ave (photo below) directly across the street from Coronado Pharmacy. CBRE also has the Petco store location, but we have not received any confirmation on who the next tenant will be. It would seem to make sense that if Walgreens did go in at 925 Orange Avenue, it would be hard for the Coronado Pharmacy to compete with such a large organization – plus, Rite-Aid is just a block away as well. Rumors of Walgreens first surfaced in August 2009, but there has been no official confirmation regarding a new tenant.
Here are the remaining pharmacies in Coronado:
Central Drug Store, 1106 Orange, 619-435-4171
Rite Aid Pharmacy, 836 Orange 619-435-6200
