The Port St. Lucie City Council has officially approved the site plan for a new Costco wholesale store. The proposed store is slated to be 163,000 square feet and will be situated along the Southern Grove jobs corridor within the city limits.
The approval marks a significant step forward in the development process for the large retail outlet. The Southern Grove area is designated for economic growth and employment opportunities, and the addition of a major retailer like Costco is anticipated to contribute to these objectives.
