CBS New York April 9, 2021 A Brooklyn community is rallying around a staple grocery store that is being forced to close. The property owner argues its lease expired and a new supermarket will go in its place. However, as some longtime residents expressed to CBS2's Jenna DeAngelis, they fear this will only push them out of the community. Associated Supermarket has been serving neighboring communities Crown Heights and Prospect Lefferts Gardens for three decades. It is popular with neighbors for its accessibility and affordability. CBS Local Digital Media personalizes the global reach of CBS-owned and operated television and radio stations with a local perspective.
