Kinney Drugs Coming to Washington Mills Plaza on Kellogg Road, Opening Date TBA
Why it matters here
Washington Mills has been without a neighborhood pharmacy since its Rite Aid closed about a year ago, so this brings a pharmacy back to the hamlet.

Kinney Drugs is getting ready to open a store in the Kellogg Road plaza in Washington Mills, in the Town of New Hartford, WKTV reported Oct. 27. No opening date has been announced.
A Kinney sign is up next to Charlie's Pizza, and shelves inside already look stocked. The store is in the same plaza as the old Rite Aid, which closed about a year ago, but not in the former Rite Aid space.
Hours, pharmacy services, hiring plans and the exact street address haven't been published yet. Kinney, an upstate chain, has an existing area store at 40 Oriskany Blvd. in Whitesboro.
