The shopping center on Topsy in Carson gets almost no traffic all week or in the evenings. The only time it has any significant traffic is on weekends during the day. The Wal Mart across the road is busy all the time. The Target up the road has a similar traffic pattern to the Topsy shopping center (that is why Ross and Staples both closed there) but the Home Depot has a more typical stream of traffic.FrankMoore99 wrote: ↑April 10th, 2024, 3:22 pmThe center is not doing well?? It is the main shopping plaza in all of Carson City. It seems like there are still many Michaels that still have old logo signs, even the one in Roseville across from the Galleria. It seems like they stopped putting on the new sign when they remodel also, because the Folsom location received a major makeover in 2008 with the new sign. But it received another remodel after that didn't include the newest red sign. CVS seems like they are doing the same thing, remodeling stores without adding their new heart symbol with the sign. I am wondering that since Barnes and Noble is expanding, if a store is planned where Pier 1 was at, or if that would work in Carson City?? How did Borders do before it went out?? That building stayed a Borders ghost for the longest time. Where is the main retail area of Carson City??storewanderer wrote: ↑April 10th, 2024, 12:20 amThis isn't something I've heard will happen. I expect to see additional anchor spaces empty in the Topsy center... pretty lousy performing stores there for most parties. Outdated Petco and Michaels units with old logo signs, Marshalls did finally remodel the interior recently so maybe they're safe; oversized Dollar Tree in the former Old Navy that does poorly for its size; Best Buy with hardly any traffic...FrankMoore99 wrote: ↑April 9th, 2024, 12:24 pm
Really?? They aren't closing the store to relocate. I figured they were probably relocating to the former Bed Bath and Beyond on Topsy because Burlington has been doing that as of late.
I am wondering what stores are planned for Bed Bath and Beyond stores in the Sacramento area?? I know Burlington is planning to relocate their Natomas store to that BB&B space and Floor and Decor is planning to relocate their Roseville store to that and Buy Buy Baby's space. Are their any plans for Folsom's space?
Borders had traffic in Carson City when it was there but the sales were low. It had a lot of people who used it like it was a library and the typical transaction size there was very small. If Barnes & Noble were to open in Carson City I don't think that shopping area would be the right location. I don't really see Barnes & Noble opening in Carson City period.
I've noticed CVS quit doing logo changes on the latest batch of remodels too.
Michaels and Petco have not done any remodel in Carson City. Those stores are original. Michaels looks fine inside. Petco is a total dirty dump.
