Shopping Centers, 2023
According to an October 17th report from Fox5NY.com, Target opened its newest store at Union Square.
As excerpted from the report: The 33,000 sq. ft. store is located at 10 Union Square East, on the northeast corner of 14th Street. The location includes a CVS Pharmacy and offers order pickup and same-day delivery, a spokesperson told Fox 5 NY. The store opening comes after the company announced last month they would close nine stores in four states, including one in East Harlem – saying theft and organized retail crime threatened the safety of its workers and customers.
There have been no official announcement made regarding future New York City-area locations.
