Major Retailer Announced For Southbury: Report

SOUTHBURY, CT — HomeGoods will be taking the place of the recently closed Staples building in the fall of 2018, the Republican-American reports. The store will be located at 775 Main St. South. Numerous renovations will occur to the 20,000-square-foot building before HomeGoods opens.

Town officials say the fact that a national retailer was quickly attracted to the space is a sign that the town's economic development is strong, the Rep-Am reports. There are eight HomeGoods stores in Connecticut currently.
