CBL has also entered into an agreement with Macy&#8217;s to buy the other three locations, totaling 444,000 square feet, for $5 million.<\/p>\n<p>The transaction is set to close during the first quarter. In addition to these four stores, Macy&#8217;s has recently announced it would close its store at the River Ridge Mall in Lynchburg, Va., in which CBL has a minority interest, but the acquisition and redevelopment of that location will be handled by the majority owner of the mall.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The redevelopment of former department stores provides CBL with significant value-creation opportunities,&#8221; said Stephen Lebovitz, president &amp; CEO, in prepared remarks. &#8220;As we discussed on our last earnings call, the closure of these locations was fully anticipated. Recapturing these stores will allow us to take space that is underperforming and convert it into new retail, dining and entertainment users\u2014driving increased traffic, sales and growth to the entire property as well as generating strong returns to CBL.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The department store operator is shutting down <a href=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/macys-closing-100-stores-following-drop-in-sales\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">100 of its retail stores<\/a> this year, stating that they will be focusing largely on the better-performing locations and work to create a stronger online presence. According to the company&#8217;s quarterly earnings, profits fell to $11 million last quarter, down from $217 million in the previous year. Macy&#8217;s is actively working on selling its properties as it closes these locations throughout the year, one recent transaction being a $46 million <a href=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/macys-continues-restructuring-sells-assets-to-ggp\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">five-store portfolio sale<\/a> to General Growth Properties in October 2016. Macy&#8217;s recently appointed CBRE Group to assist with the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/cbre-teams-up-with-macys-for-store-dispositions\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">national disposition<\/a> of a portion of the store closings.<\/p>\n<p>Sears is facing a similar outcome, closing 150 of its locations. According to Sears, the 150 Kmart and Sears stores generated\u00a0$1.2 billion over the last year but generated a loss of $60 million over that same amount of time. The company has also agreed to sell its Craftsman business to Stanley Black and Decker for $775 million, including the license for the brand, royalty fee for 15 years and a 15-year royalty stream on all third-party Craftsman sales to new customers.<\/p>\n<p><em>Image courtesy of Google Street View<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>CBL has entered into an agreement to buy three of the four locations from Macy&#8217;s for $5 million. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":746,"featured_media":1004163540,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[21743,21783,13,21742,21749],"tags":[33275,33353,33373],"class_list":["post-1004163423","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-deals","category-investment","category-midwest","category-latest","category-retail","tag-cbl-associates-properties-inc","tag-macys","tag-stephen-lebovitz"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v23.4 (Yoast SEO v24.6) -
