NEW BANK SITE WINE STORE OWNER MEETS WITH RESIDENTS, SHARES PLANS

Site of former Santander Bank where wine store will go
When residents first heard that a liquor store was going into the former Santander Bank at Springfield Avenue and Prospect Street, many were understandably concerned.

But owner Atul Gupta, who manages a Buy Rite liquors in Boonton, has reached out to residents to ensure this will be an upscale wine store with beer. He and Mayor Vic De Luca met with residents on Thursday night at the De Hart Center to explain the plans.

Gupta also shared his interior plans for the store, which will include a large select wine area and beer selection, with less hard liquor than most.

He hopes to have it open by November.

The liquor license approval granted last month also disallows single beer can sales or distribution of cups with ice to discourage single drinking.
