Target Will Open In Redstone In July

When you flip that family calendar over to June on Thursday it becomes official. The Target at Redstone Plaza will open next month.

The 48,000 flexible format store will occupy the building formally operated by Shaw's Supermarket. Target is hiring for the store and work has been going on daily.

As reported by Patch last December, the store will be Target's fourth flexible-format store in the greater Boston area. According to Target, a flexible-format store allows for stores in smaller locations with assortments tailored for local guests.

“We look forward to serving even more guests in the greater Boston area with the addition of Target’s July 2017 Stoneham store at Redstone Shopping Center,” Mark Schindele, Target's senior vice president of properties, said in a December statement. “We think the community will enjoy the convenient shopping experience with a broad, unique product assortment that only Target can provide.”
