La Tejana Mexican Market has officially opened its doors. The Mexican-themed convenience store is located in the former Mini Mart/Best Stop store at the corner of Boulevard Avenue and 14th Street. News of La Tejana opening at the site was first reported in May.
The previous Best Stop store closed in 2012 due to insufficient business. The convenience store, which was formerly a Kroger-brand Mini-Mart, had closed once prior to re-opening as Best Stop. Recently, Ruth Meiers tried to open a soup kitchen, but was denied due to strong neighborhood opposition.
