PORTLAND-Trader Joe’s is negotiating to lease the 14,400-sf former Thriftway on N.W. Glisan from the Durst family. Trader Joe’s real estate guy Doug Yokomizo tells GlobeSt.com the company has no signed lease and is still in negotiations with the Durst’s, but that “the major issues are resolved.”

The Durst Thriftway closed last fall in the face of stiff competition from nearby alternatives like Fred Meyer, Zupan’s and City Market.

The remaining square footage would likely be sublet, maybe to existing property tenants like Sammy Flowers and the Upfront Café.
