Saultonline.com told you about a pending new tenant in the former Zellers location on Northern Ave a few months ago, today we can confirm that Lowe’s is moving in and ready for Summer 2015.
Lowe’s issued this release today.
The Sault Ste. Marie Lowe’s will have approximately 75,000 square feet of retail sales space, with an adjacent permanent garden centre of approximately 4,400 square feet plus a 6,300 square foot seasonal pop-up garden centre.
The store represents an approximate local investment in excess of $7 million and will create 120 to 140 jobs with an additional 40 to 50 seasonal positions.
The store will be located at 248 Northern Avenue in the city’s north end and is scheduled to open in summer 2015.
Lowe’s opened two new stores in Ontario, in February 2014, in Cambridge and Burlington that featured the company’s new concept store experience.
Last week the company launched the Lowe’s Holoroom in its North Etobicoke and Burlington stores which is a first of its kind, home improvement simulator that applies 3-D and augmented reality technologies to provide home owners with an intuitive, immersive experience of their room renovation projects.
Screw a store would of been cool if they put in the old rolla Rama there need more things for the youth to do …maybe they would stop getting into shit lol but for real the kids need something
Costco or an IKEA would be nice, and yes Giant Tiger would be sweet too! No such luck.
zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz. Better prices elsewhere.
i’d like a Target or Cosco
The only good thing that’s gonna come out of this is that they are creating some jobs!!!! The crappy thing is that it’s yet another home improvement store!!!!
How bout the city reps take a look at why saultites are going across the river to shop….or even down to southern Ontario to shop?…there is absolutely no variety there….unless you just want walmart!!!
How bout using that space and making a few stores???
There is such stores as GAP, Old Navy, and the list goes on!
Give the people something to be excited about!
All the memories there from going there as a kid up until they tore it down a cpl years ago
That’s so dumb like put a good store in there like a giant tiger
Or target or cosco.
We don’t need this store we have three-four stores similar to this. It’s so annoying, the stores here are beyond repetitive.
What they should put there is a bass pro shop as we are a northern comunity awesome hunting and fishing here. As other pro shops have no good deals or product
Why do we need another home improvement store.
not impressed that this is what’s coming to the Sault…
I had seen a truck pulling a rock climbing wall pull into that lot months ago and had my hopes up we were getting some sort of indoor play land for kids but I was obviously wrong. 🙁
Just like pizza place a in the sault…..so.we.really need another
Cus that’s what we need is another home improvement store why can’t we have something awesome like Costco or old navy
