PINECREST (CBSMiami) – It's getting closer.
Last week the signs went up on the new Trader Joe's location in Pinecrest which is scheduled to open this fall.
Located in the 9200 block of South Dixie Highway, where a Borders bookstore used to be, the store is scheduled to open October 18th, according to CBS4 news partner The Miami Herald.
The store, the first in Miami-Dade, has 13,500 square feet and will be open from 8:00 a.m. – 9:00 p.m. daily.
