New Walgreens: Welcome Addition or Pharmacy Overkill?

Walgreens is coming soon to Miller Place and will be the third major pharmacy in half-mile on Route 25A.

Walgreens was a long-rumored project for the south side of Route 25A in Miller Place for years, and it is now a fast-approaching reality that is under construction.

Currently the closest Walgreens are in Selden and Wading River. There is, however, a Rite Aid already located directly across from the site as well as two CVS'; one a half-mile down the road and the other just east in Rocky Point.

Along with the major pharmacies, there are also smaller local spots already in place such as Echo Pharmacy in Sound Beach.
