Yep. The still-in-redevelopment Bayshore Town Center (which we think dropped “town center” from its name, even though it plans to become more of a town center than ever before) is getting a Target. A two-story Target! It’ll be in the old Boston Store space. There’s currently no opening date.
The Glendale open-air mall/shopping center/town hall will debut its renovated public square on July 10. They also knocked down the food court portion of the old mall, which sucks. (They’re gonna build a hotel, more apartments, and more office space there.) At least we have eerie memories…
Here’s the Target press release for people who have long been obsessed with getting a another Target in the immediate Milwaukee area:
