A long vacant space in Westerly formerly occupied by a Shaw's supermarket may be getting a new tenant. Supermarket chain Aldi's apparently is considering the 18-thousand square foot space at Franklin Plaza that Shaw's vacated in the summer of 2013. Shaw's has continued to pay the lease on the vacant space. Aldi's reportedly does not want to occupy the entire space, which has created a problem for the property owner who would be forced to find other tenants to fill out the space.
