Your Rancho Cucamonga business report

While I was in the Victoria Gardens area Monday, I noticed that the Drexel Heritage furnishings store at Foothill and Day Creek is closed.

But in better news, construction is going on inside the empty Drexel store to turn the space into a Fresh & Easy market, the first in the city. Two other Fresh & Easy stores have been announced for Rancho, but in brand-new buildings, which means we probably won't see them for a while.

In related news from the neighborhood, the Starbucks on Foothill immediately east of the 15 Freeway, the one by the Catholic church, has closed.

This has been your Rancho Cucamonga business report.
