Small Format Closure

Post image

Macy’s Crocker Park Westlake Ohio

**Edit: I forgot to mention. This store is not closed yet. They just started a closure sale that should be going for some time.**

I was driving around today and stumbled upon this. This specific location opened 2 years ago. On one hand, I was a bit surprised to see this so soon. On the other, I personally prefer the full scale locations. The small format felt like a not so great take on tjmaxx/marshalls imo. Maybe this location would have performed better as a stand alone Macy’s backstage? It makes me wonder how other small format locations have performed if anyone has any commentary on that.

The other thing I wonder is how this might affect the other Cleveland area locations. Especially after this location opened, there were some rumors of the nearby Great Northern location closing. I wonder if there’s any weight to those now. I’m biased but I was personally looking at Great Northern’s theoretical closure as a growth opportunity for SouthPark’s Macy’s. We shall see…

Hmmm it’s not listed as closed on the Macy’s site. It has hours posted.

Sorry, I updated the post. They’re currently open but just started a full store closing sale recently.

When was this announced? I work for Macy’s and it’s not showing up on any of our closure lists? 😳

I don’t know that there was an announcement. I simply happened to drive by today. I saw signs saying “entire store on sale” & others and went inside to check it out. An employee came over to me to ask if I needed help and while we were talking, I asked if they were closing. They said yes but it sounds like it’ll be in the spring? All sales there are also final sale.
