Whole Foods Interbay
Whole Foods has settled its legal dispute with developer TRF Pacific, paving the way to open its latest store along 15th Ave. in Interbay after all.Construction ground to a halt late last year after Whole Foods had second thoughts about moving into the entire 38,000 square foot space. But the new plan is for Whole Foods to open a smaller store later this year and sub-lease the remaining square footage to another retailer.The Interbay Urban Center Whole Foods Market will offer a salad bar, hot bar, chef’s case, all-natural sandwiches, coffee shop and other amenities, such as cooking classes and demonstrations. Peet’s Coffee, Subway, Verizon Wireless and a dry cleaner are also planning to move in the complex. Whole Foods, meantime, has moved forward with its five-step animal welfare rating program, developed with the Global Animal Partnership. If this be eyewash, at least it's earnest eyewash. "Green Plus" chickens (chickens again!) must be able to perch, live in small groups (under 500 birds), have room to flap their wings and preen without touching another bird, and cannot be subjected to beak-trimming. Green-Plus pigs can't have their tails docked; Green-Plus beef cattle can't be castrated. Color-coded animal welfare ratings will appeaer shortly on the Whole Foods meat counter.
