We first learned that Target would be opening a Columbus Circle store in October of 2018. They’re supposed to be opening once the building they’ve leased space in is complete.
Construction at this building topped out in October of 2018. And in the residential portion (which has an address of 15 West 61st Street and is called The Park Loggia), they launched sales in May. According to the building website, occupancy is expected for this fall.
Which means, hopefully, the new Target should be opening this fall as well.
Target will open a second Upper West Side location
This will be one of Target’s “small format stores”, which are designed for urban areas. But at over 35,000 square feet across two levels, it will only be small compared to the average Target (which is 130,000 square feet). As far as we know, it will be the only retailer in the building.
Next time we cover Target, it will be to announce their official opening date.
