Destiny USA

 

Carousel entrance

The pandemic has affected malls across the country and Destiny USA (née Carousel Centre) is no exception.  JCPenney, Michaels, and Lord & Taylor have just left and Best Buy are next.  Smaller stores have also closed.  It may be some time before anyone takes a gamble on opening here as more people were shopping online even before last year.  It would be nice to have these come in someday:

von Maur

Bloomingdales (sister to Macys)

Boscovs (in sister mall Sangertown Square in former Sears in New Hartford)

Zara

Ultimate Athletics (even though there's Dicks in the Canyon section)

IKEA (they usually stick to big areas in the US)

Amazon 4-Star (Amazon Fresh was considered, but pulled out)

Altar'd

Åland

California Pizza Kitchen

I Heart Mac & Cheese

Ross Dress for Less (although Burlington are already down cellar)

Shoe Carnival

Long John Silvers

Primark (Irish chains international name that I heard of from the UK)*

Whealthy (healthalicious chain new to the Northeast)*

Newbury Comics (New England chain that I went to in Boston on hols once or twice)*

*Recently opened in or coming soon to sister mall Crossgates Mall on US 20 in Guilderland in Albany County according to ABC 10/Fox 23.  Will go further with each at a later time.

Dedicated to the memory of Robert Congel.
