Dollar Tree opens in new location
NORWICH – A ribbon-cutting ceremony was held for the Dollar Tree this weekend when the store officially opened at its new location in the Tops Plaza.
City officials, along with Dollar Tree management and employees, gathered inside the building to host the grand opening celebration early Saturday morning. With balloons in place, face painting and crafts tables set up for kids, and “Bucky” the Dollar Tree mascot making an appearance to greet frugal shoppers, Mayor Joseph Maiurano snipped the red ribbon that spanned the store’s entrance.
“I’m excited about its new place here in the plaza,” Maiurano said. “They’re in a great location and have more room which allows them to have more products and I thinks it’s really going to benefit the area.”
“We’re proud we were able to move into a bigger and better place,” said Dollar Tree manager Joyce Vissuskus. “We invite everyone to come on down and check us out.”
Along with the festivities, the Chenango County Sheriff’s Office, in collaboration with the Norwich City Police, issued Child Safe ID’s and collected information from parents throughout the morning for New York State’s Missing and Exploited Children Program.
Dollar Tree’s new place in the plaza was left vacant by GHS Federal Credit Union, which moved from the plaza in December to its new home at the former Byrne Dairy Building on East Main Street. Construction crews began extensive renovations in the plaza’s south side shortly after, combining three empty retail spaces once occupied by GHS, Label Shopper and Little Ceasar’s Pizza into one large 9,000 square foot space for Dollar Tree.
Dollar Tree’s departure from its former South Broad Street location leaves a void in the central part of the city that will be quickly taken up by NBT, which announced in December it would accommodate the needs of its own expansion by utilizing the entire building for office space upon completion of renovations in the late spring.
“We might have lost visible business on Main Street, but it’s opened up good opportunities for NBT,” Maiurano noted. He added that city officials have now set their sights on attracting businesses to the empty north end of the East Main Street plaza. “Dollar Tree will help out other businesses in the plaza and hopefully, we can fill the other end of this plaza to make this a vital area for the city.”
