PENNSYLVANIA — Macy’s is moving forward with plans announced last February to close 66 stores, including four in Pennsylvania, the department store chain said Thursday. Among those closing in Pennsylvania is the iconic Center City Philadelphia location.

The majority of the stores are expected to close in the first quarter of 2025, the company said.

Over three years in a plan described as Macy’s “Bold New Chapter,” the company plans to close 150 underperforming stores while at the same time investing more heavily in 350 stores that will remain open, a news release stated. Macy's is hoping to return to "sustainable, profitable sales growth" with these closures, the company said.
