New Yorkers love to emphasize their non-suburban tendencies, but something about big-box retailer Target must be working because they’ve just announced plans to open yet another store in NYC. First reported by The Real Deal, Target will open a Washington Heights outpost at 181st Street and St. Nicholas Avenue in 2020.
The Real Deal spotted the filing with the NYC Department of Finance, and Target confirmed the news that they signed a 15-year lease for 23,700 square feet at 600 West 181st Street, a two-story retail building that is already home to Modell’s, Kohl’s, and Best Buy. Based on the square footage, it’s safe to say that the Washington Heights store will be one of a growing number of small-format Targets, which the company says “offer a curated mix of the categories guests find in our full-size Target stores—including food and beverage, apparel and accessories, health and beauty, and home décor—all based on the community’s needs.” The new store is expected to open in 2020, joining other recently announced locations in Hell’s Kitchen, the Upper East Side, Columbus Circle, Astoria, and Staten Island.

- East Harlem’s East River Plaza
- Kips Bay
