End Of An Era: Downtown Brooklyn's Macy's Store Closes Permanently
Briefly

The iconic Macy's store on Fulton Street in Downtown Brooklyn has officially closed its doors, marking the end of over three decades of operation. This closure is part of Macy's strategy to shut down 150 underperforming stores within three years while expanding its presence with 350 smaller, more efficient locations. Despite its historic significance, the building will remain vacant for now, and details regarding the future of the employees affected have not been announced. Community leaders mourn the loss, emphasizing the need to preserve retail presence in the area.
Closing any store is never easy, but as part of our Bold New Chapter strategy, we are closing underproductive Macy's stores to allow us to focus our resources and prioritize investments in our go-forward stores.
It's a sad day for Brooklynites who've made countless memories here. We'll push to ensure this iconic space continues to maintain a retail presence.
