Mystery Retailer Moving Into Former Circuit City Building

In recent weeks, you may have seen construction crews working on the former Circuit City building, located at 1812 S. Randall Road, next to Dick’s Sporting Goods.

Most recently, the location served as a makeshift Halloween costume store last fall and has since remained vacant.

Patch inquired with Inland Real Estate, the commercial real estate company that owns and manages the Algonquin Commons among other national retail locations, to find out what the action was all about.

Unfortunately, at this time Beth Hicks, assistant vice president and director of marketing at Inland Real Estate, said she could not reveal which store will be joining Algonquin’s list of retailers.

“While I would love to share the exciting news, this national retailer would like to make their own announcement in the next month or so,” Hicks said in an email to Patch.

So there you have it, in about a month or so Patch can tell you the latest store in the Algonquin Commons.

Most recently, rue21, a national clothing retailer, and Charming Charlie, a national accessories retailer, have opened for business in the Algonquin Commons.
