Thanks to Brent and all for sending word about the Payless Stores closing. From the New York Times:
“Payless ShoeSource, a once-popular seller of inexpensive women’s footwear and a staple in many suburban shopping malls, is closing all of its American stores.” (more…)
4500 Wisconsin Ave, NW
In November I shared some scuttlebutt about the space saying “The strongest rumor that I continue to hear is that a full size Target may take over the space.” The Washington Business Journal confirms the news this morning:
“Target to fill big Tenleytown retail vacancy.”
Best Buy closed November 3rd leaving a big hole to fill. Some folks doubted that a Target would fill that hole due to the fact that Cleveland Park was getting one of the “small-format” urban stores (opening April 7th by the by.) Stay tuned for updates as this one gets closer to opening, probably this fall.
