Popular Retailer Opening New Location in Amherst

January-March isn't exactly the most popular time of the year to go out. The spring and summer is usually when many people start to go out more often, whether it's out to eat, or to go shopping.

Shopping plazas are always popular here in Western New York. There are many to choose from, like Quaker Crossing in Orchard Park and Southgate Plaza in West Seneca.

Maybe the most popular plaza in the northtowns is The Boulevard in Amherst, which is located off Niagara Falls Blvd.

The plaza hosts retailers like Best Buy, Barnes & Noble, Famous Footwear and Old Navy, among others.

One popular retailer will be bringing a new location to The Boulevard plaza in April.

According to Buffalo Business First, Marshalls will be opening up a new location inside The Boulevard on April 14th.

Marshalls is a discount retail chain, who already has multiple locations throughout Western New York, and this new location in Amherst will occupy most of the former Babies 'R Us location, near Target.

Bath & Body Works will be in the same building next door, as the recently opened there as well.

Marshalls is similar to stores like T.J. Maxx, which is under the same company umbrella, so this makes sense, especially for a shopping plaza as big and as popular as The Boulevard; which did change its name from the Boulevard Consumer Square.
