German discount grocer Aldi is in the process of building out a former Barnes & Noble location in Tampa, where it will open its first store on the south side of the city.

According to permits filed with the Tampa’s planning department, the grocer is retrofitting the bookseller’s long-time home at 213 N. Dale Mabry Highway.

No opening date is available, and the company did not respond to a request for comment Thursday evening.
