Macy’s pulls back the curtain on the 66 stores soon to go dark
For the first time since Macy’s announced sweeping store shutdowns, it has identified the locations that will soon get the ax.
NEW YORK – For the first time since Macy’s announced sweeping store shutdowns, it has identified the locations that will soon get the ax.
They are among 150 underproductive Macy’s stores the company announced in February 2024 that it would close over a three-year period. The company had previously announced that it would hold off on going-out-of-business sales until the close of the holiday shopping season.
The list of 66 closing Macy’s locations can be found here.
The closings include 9 Macy’s Furniture stores. Among those, 6 are being relocated to full-line Macy’s department stores in their areas (Hillsdale, Calif.; Ft. Lauderdale, Pembroke, South Dade and Altamonte, Fla.; and Gwinnett, Ga.). One of the furniture stores on the list, Streets at Southglenn in Colorado, has already closed.
There are 5 freestanding Macy’s Backstage off-price stores on the roster: Essex Green, N.J.; Fordham Place, N.Y.; Lake Success, N.Y.; Queens Place, N.Y.; and Sheepshead Bay, N.Y.
The list also includes 3 Macy’s small-format locations in Texas: Southlake Town Square, West Bend and Highlands of Flower Mound.
“Closing any store is never easy, but as part of our Bold New Chapter strategy, we are closing underproductive Macy’s stores to allow us to focus our resources and prioritize investments in our go-forward stores, where customers are already responding positively to better product offerings and elevated service,” said Tony Spring, chairman and CEO of Macy’s Inc.
By the end of fiscal 2026, the company expects to be operating 350 Macy’s locations.
