H Mart Is Opening in Brookline

An Asian supermarket chain that has three locations in the Greater Boston area is opening a fourth.

According to a tweet from @PatrickMBoston, H Mart is planning to open in Brookline, moving into the space on Beacon Street that had been home to a location of Whole Foods. It is not known when it might open (the signs out front simply say "coming soon), but once it does, the new H Mart will join others in Burlington, Cambridge's Central Square, and Quincy.

H Mart, which started out in Queens in 1982, currently has nearly 100 stores across the United States.

The address for the new location of H Mart in Brookline is 1028 Beacon Street, Brookline, MA, 02446. The website for the chain can be found at https://www.hmart.com/

[August 8 update: According to multiple sources (including Sarah Wu and Patrick Maguire), the new H Mart in Brookline is now open, having had its grand opening on August 4.]
