New Costco Makes Debut in San Dimas
May 19, 2008

Seattle-headquartered Costco Wholesale Corp. has opened the doors of a new store on Lone Hill Ave. in San Dimas, about 30 miles outside of Los Angeles, Calif. The 154,000-square-foot Costco sits on a parcel that, according to the San Dimas City Council, can accommodate an additional 71,500 square feet of retail and/or restaurant space.  However, the chain is holding onto the sites until the demand for parking has been assessed now that the store has made its debut. There is also a gas station at the new locale.
