Wheat Ridge looks for retailer to fill spot of closed Lucky's Grocery

A man walks past the closed Lucky's Market and empty parking lot, located at 3545 Wadsworth Blvd. in Wheat Ridge, on April 11, 2023. Lucky's Market opened five years ago in what had been a dormant car lot. It was part of a larger redevelopment effort in the area, but the signature retail asset sits empty after suddenly closing in 2020. (Photo by Helen H.
