New grocery store planned for 2nd Street in downtown Lawton.

In July this year, the Lawton Economic Development Trust Authority announced the sale of the land located at the corner of 2nd Street and Ferris Ave. In the agreement, the acquisition firm that purchased the land is required to use a majority of the lot for a full-service grocery store.
