Re: Macys Closing Stores by 2026
Michigan is sensible as well--leaving in Detroit Southland/Briarwood/Twelve Oaks/Somerset/Oakland. Lakeside/Partridge Creek is the only questionable hole left---Lakeside is already slated for a (senior) housing project (somewhat similar to Northland just 7 years later)...Partridge Creek which is ab...

Re: Macys Closing Stores by 2026
I think Dillards has enough clearance centers in AZ right now with the 2 they currently have. They need one to close, then they can convert that one. They let Desert Sky stay a full service store way longer than I ever thought they would but finally converted that. But I'm not clear what their exit...

Re: Macys Closing Stores by 2026
The Arizona location at Superstition Springs Center is not a surprise. That mall and location was doomed ever since they opened SanTan Village 8 miles (and about a 15 minute drive) away and closer to more affluent shoppers. That mall is the newer "twin" to the since demolished Paradise Va...

Re: 🛒 Kroger-Albertsons Merger: National Impact

August will be in the middle of election season and I can't ...

Re: 🛒 Kroger-Albertsons Merger: National Impact
This is the worst case scenario for Kroger & Albertsons. Anyone who thinks this isn't political, you are clueless. FTC went judge shopping and found the perfect judge to end this moronic merger. Kroger and Albertsons have some part to blame here as well. To propose a merger of this size and sco...

Re: Publix entering Louisville, KY in 2023
A big reason why I say this for Publix in Denver is due to its store size. There are a lot of empty retail sites around Denver in that 40k square foot range that Publix loves. The King Soopers Stores tend to be quite big and have only gotten bigger. I think there is a place in Denver for a smaller ...

Re: Macy's Buyout? Private ownership bid
The fact that they're closing their longtime West Coast flagship store in Union Square in SF is a MAJOR indicator of problems. This would almost be equivalent to closing the Herald Square store. There is an article that specifically mentions that the store closure is pending the sale of the propert...

Re: Macys Union Square closing
Is it real yet, San Francisco? This is the most significant retail closure there yet. And this is a huge loss for Macys, that was a fantastic store. Union Square is dead. It's kind of sad. When I lived in the Bay Area (and worked in downtown SF) from 2009 - 2010 that area was absolutely full of lif...
