ROCHESTER - The Market Basket at The Ridge Marketplace is tentatively set to open in less than two weeks, with Aug. 6, a Saturday, the target opening date, a Waterstone Retail spokesperson said today.

The Massachusetts-based food retailer will join other key tenants already open like Petco, Marshalls, Famous Footwear and Hobby Lobby.

Other stores that are expected to join later are ULTA Beauty, SuperCuts and I-SPA Nails. SuperCuts and I-SPA Nails probably won't open till the fall, said Waterstone spokesperson Jen Fairfield.

Fairfield added that about a week after Market Basket settles in, Waterstone Retail, the developer of The Ridge, will hold a ribbon-cutting ceremony to celebrate the property's grand opening.

When completed, The Ridge will be a 250,000+ square foot open-air retail destination featuring an eclectic mix of retailers, restaurants, services and a movie theater.

It will also include an outdoor park space for seasonal events, community gatherings, arts programs, farmer's markets, kids programs and a place to enjoy outdoor dining.

Some 40 commercial tenants will be in place by the time the project is completed.

Waterstone also developed the Brickyard Square shopping center in Epping, which includes tenants such as Market Basket, Marshalls, PetSmart, Michaels, 900 Degrees Wood Fired Pizza, Tortilla Flat Mexican Restaurant, and the O'Neil movie theater.

Some of the infrastructure cost for the shopping center constructions is being accommodated through a Tax Increment Finance (TIF) district similar to the TIF district located by the Rochester Airport to accommodate Safron Aerospace Composites.
