For four months, Carrie Dunn watched and marvelled at how the vacant space at the north end of Bloomfield Plaza transformed into the latest Trader Joe's store. From dirt floors, exposed ceiling wires and plywood structures to painted drywall, custom artwork and tons of product, as captain, she said she couldn't believe it was time to open the doors Tuesday morning. But then she saw the line of people a dozen deep outside her doors. "It became real, and it was amazing because there were people lined up and ready. And that's who all this was for," Dunn said. _______________________ Contest: Win a $50 Gift Card at the Bloomfield Trader Joe's ______________________ Customers snaked their way through spacious aisles, picking up produce, …

The exterior sign is up and the interior is coming together at the market's new locale at Telegraph and Maple.
