SouthPark Mall

[KJHburg]

Sur la Table would do good in South End but I can't see them leaving Southpark.  High income shoppers abound at SouthPark and I am sure that store does pretty well there.  Plus they have a location in Huntersville so who knows they may be looking for a new location but not leaving SouthPark.

H&M seems out of place at SouthPark. 

Their lease would not be up for another 5 years and they make perfect sense at south park

The collection at SouthPark is actually nicer and has a bigger variety than the collection they carry at Northlake and Carolina Place.

All I want is a Zara and a Club Monaco.  I feel like these are realistic within the next 5 years. There's no Zara between DC and Atlanta, and Charlotte makes the most sense if they were to open a store I think. There is a Club Monaco in Charleston though.

As for the store leaving SouthPark for South End, I'm going to guess The North Face.

I'd be happy to see any sort of national retailer in South End. I think Urban would make a great fit.

Its actually not an exiting store really. But its a start. People are thinking within the mall, there are other stores in "SouthPark." Its a store that makes sense being near the executive offices uptown, and in a district trying to become "The Design District"

Crate and Barrel. But I would also love to see a Zara come to either Uptown or Southend. It would kill.

The Container Store...

I could see Design Within Reach moving from their South Park spot below the Residence. 

[DMann]

William Sonoma?

You automatically made me think Laura Vinroot Poole needs to make some moves in that direction. 

Look at the design of this store and the care she puts into the selection process.

That sounds spot on for wanting to be in the "Design" district and having corporate clients in Uptown, etc... that need offices outfitted. I don't think it will be William Sonoma, Crate & Barrel, Pottery Barn, Sur La Table, etc...

I think you win on the guesses!

since I win, I'd like to also guess that lululemon will be opening at either atherton or the design center.

Your prize will be a Krispy Kreme doughnut and McCafe coffee of your choice. 

Lululemon might open another store but doubt it would close the Southpark store.  Remember SouthPark mall is the top grossing sales per square mall in Carolinas and it is among the best in the country.

I'd love to see the design district actually come to life, as well as the gold district. Once one store goes to South End, They'll all go.

One of the locally grown stores similar to lulelemon is opening at design center already.

The Apple store is closing temporarily for renovations on April 22nd. It seems like it wasn't that long ago that they moved into the bigger space.

The new Apple store format for malls has giant doors that open across. I'd expect SouthPark to get the new company-standard design.

[videtur quam contuor]

Nationwide Apple stores have sales that are 88% higher than Tiffany which is #2. A verified money machine.

It is official. Design Within Reach to relocate from the Village at SouthPark to the former Studio Cellar location at 1800 Camden Road (West/Camden intersection across from Blaze).

One thing though... I'm not sure the article is completely accurate. I think Design Within Reach is destined for the Charlotte Art League Space, its just moving to Studio Cellar temporarily, until "The Wedge" can be built up. I could be wrong tho.
