| Pioneer Place, Ferguson Books & More's new location. | |
Ferguson Books & More, which already has locations in Bismarck and Grand Forks, N.Dak., will open a new location in West Fargo later this year, the West Fargo Pioneer reported. The general-interest store wil carry new bestsellers along with a wide range of used titles, as well as a toy section and other nonbook items.
The West Fargo store will reside in a 1,200-square-foot space located on the ground floor of a recently constructed development. Construction is expected to be complete by November, and Ferguson Books & More will share the building's first floor with several other businesses, including a coffee shop.
Earlier this month Ferguson Books & More received an enterprise grant from the West Fargo City Commission totaling $41,000. That amounts to roughly half of the $83,000 invested into opening the new location.
"The Fargo-Moorhead market has been on our radar for quite some time," founder Dane Ferguson told the Pioneer, "and we landed on West Fargo because we wanted to provide a book experience for families and a community that is on the grow."
