Whole Foods built a large store in west Hartford center, then they bought a local similar grocery store in bishops corner called wild oats and instead of closing it decided to turn it into a Whole Foods as well. Then about 2 years ago they decided to build a Whole Foods in Avon instead, and then again decided to keep the bishops corner one open. Source: I grew up within walking distance to bishops corner.

Edited to add: there were 4 grocery stores in bishops corner my whole childhood. Now there are 3, but that’s still a lot for a few blocks.
