The second Target store on the Upper West Side is set to open on Sunday, according to the company’s app. The new store is at 795 Columbus Avenue at 98th Street, the former home of Modell’s. Gretchen Berger sent us the screenshot of the app below.
A company spokesperson did not confirm the date, but said it would have more info on the opening this week.

Hooray! Can’t wait to start shopping there. Thanks for the great news.
So then you’re saying that there’s now no chance: that Modell’s will absolutely positively not return to their former home?
Hope dies slowly and then abruptly. So much for my new weightlifting gloves
sigh…
Modell’s liquidated in bankruptcy. The name was bought by some online retailer: https://www.forbes.com/sites/joanverdon/2020/08/23/the-name-game-why-tai-lopez-and-alex-mehr-bought-modells-and-other-retail-brands/?sh=12de92502199
Several of the nearby 99 Cents stores have very nice Weight/biking gloves for $3.99 a pair. Go crazy!
And get good exercise running between them all, where you can find almost anything and of quality for absurdly low prices, thank you very much.
thrilled for this!
Target’s website says this store is open now.
I went there today and the only thing this store has in common with a real Target is the logo.
