Construction on the new CVS on South State continues this fall, and the chain plans to open the new store - located on the edge of the University of Michigan campus - by early 2011, the Michigan Daily reports.

CVS finalized its purchase of the historic building at 209-211 S. State in May.

The chain is retaining the building's historic facade, but building a new, full-service store behind it.

The construction signals one of many changes along South State corridor near campus this year, including the opening of North Quad and the addition of many new retailers as commercial real estate activity increases due to pedestrian traffic on the street.
