REI

Pineville, NC location.

REI made headlines by staying closed on Black Friday which is how I heard of them as they have yet to grace these (lake) shores being only downstate in NY right now:

Clifton Park - former OfficeMax
North Syracuse - Northern Lights, former TJ Maxx, Michaels or Media Play, US 11
New Hartford - former Gander Mountain, NY 5A and CR 30 or Herb Phillipsons
Schonowe - Rotterdam Square Mall/Viaport (old Macys), NY 337
Williamsville - former Best Buy, NY 78
Oswego - NY 104 (TBD)
Fulton - River Glen Plaza (former kmart), NY 481
Cortland - Riverside Mall or Cortlandville, NY 13
Latham - Latham Circle Mall (freestanding), NY 2 & 7 and US 9
Ithaca - The Shops at Pyramid Mall, N Triphammer Rd
Guilderland - former Best Buy, Crossgates Mall, US 20

Williamsville - former Best Buy, NY 78

Auburn - former Dicks, Fingerlakes Crossing, NY 5 & US 20

von Maur

Fishers, Victor, NY location outside Rochester, the closest one to Syracuse right now.

I go by the von Maur that you see when I go to Rochester so here's where they could open:

Camillus - former Bon-Ton

Syracuse - Destiny USA, departing Bon Ton (Ontario County von Maur shown here was one) or JCPenney

New Hartford - Sangertown Square, former Circuit City
Cicero - former Burlington at Drivers Village

Latham - Latham Circle Mall; would have to be freestanding

DeWitt - Shoppingtown Mall; former Macys, JCPenney or Dicks

Clay - Great Northern Mall, also former Bon Ton or Macys

Poughkeepsie - former JCPenney, US 9
