Retail Rumors: Is J. Crew Finally Coming to Southport?

Update the week of January 26: J. Crew is signing their lease this week.

After years of rumors it is almost all but confirmed that J. Crew is coming to 3423-25 N. Southport Avenue.  Construction should start in early 2015 and should take about a year to complete the new construction space.

J. Crew was originally speculated to open in the now EVEREVE location, but the storefront was not large enough for a typical J. Crew store.  It has been reported that they have been looking at Southport \”for years\”.  A formal announcement should happen by the end of the year.

Now onto that West Elm Market rumor that’s been circulating for quite some time now!?!?
