Wayne Towne Center to Open this Fall

The Wayne Towne Center will open after being vacant since 2008.

The shopping center will now house a 148,000-square-foot Costco store with a 16-pump gas station and a 70,000-square-foot Dick’s Sporting Goods store, according to NorthJersey.com.

The Wayne Towne Center, whose redevelopment project was halted by the recession, will open this fall.

“It’s an indication that in some respects the economy is starting to turn around,” Assemblyman Scott Rumana, R-Wayne, told NorthJersey.com.
