Its regional nemesis, Bradlees, has plans for a Brooklyn store, but that unit will not open until 1994.
The Flushing store included some merchandising that seemed designed especially for a city store. The women’s department, for instance, featured gold lame and other evening style dresses–not common in most suburban Caldors.
I’ve read recently that finally something is going on at the old Caldor.
I’ve been looking all over on Flickr tonight to see if anybody ever had the chance to get inside of there when the store was still vacant. I haven’t found anything yet.
What are peoples memories of this store?
