On 07 January 2015, Ohio based Macy’s department store  announced new shutdowns for 2015.  At least 14 stores to be shutdown and as many as 2-thousand 5-hundred people to be rendered jobless!

In the following list, those stores in bold letters are the stores to be shutdown this year.

Arizona: Mesa Macy’s, Metro Center in Phoenix.

California: Pasadena Paseo Colorado mall Macy’s, 116 jobs lost! Interestingly this Macy’s was not covered in the list of ‘five’ closures published by east coast news sources, however, California news sources say this store shows the list actually covered six stores. I wonder why the dominant east coast news sources failed to identify it? In Cupertino, the Vallco Shopping Mall Macy’s was sold off, no word on if the store will be shutdown by the new owner, Cupertino Square Mall, Promenade-Woodland Hills, Furniture Gallery-Woodland hills.

Florida: Bradenton DeSoto Square mall Macy’s, 131 jobs affected!  Gulf View Square.

Kansas: Overland Park Macy’s.

Michigan: Northland Center.

Missouri: Florrisant Macy’s.

New York: Irondequoit Macy’s, ShoppingTown Mall, Rotterdam Square.

North Carolina: Wendover-Greensboro. 

New Jersey: Ledgewood Mall.

Ohio: Kingsdale Shopping Center, Richmond Town Square, Upper Valley mall.

Pennsylvania: West Manchester Township Macy’s, 69 jobs lost.

Tennessee: Southland Mall.

Texas: One of two Houston Macy’s (Galleria Macy’s), 136 jobs lost!
