The changing landscape at Kentucky Oaks Mall

The diverse list of choices at Kentucky Oaks Mall continues to grow.  The popular HomeGoods brand will soon be arriving, offering its outstanding collection of everything to make a home more beautiful.  HomeGoods specializes in brand name furniture, linens, cooking products, art, seasonal decorations and other home accessories offered at discounted prices.  The new 44,000 square foot store will be located in a space formerly occupied by Elder-Beerman.  When it opens its doors in October, it will be the only HomeGoods in western Kentucky.

HomeGoods was founded in Framingham, Massachusetts in 1992.  It has now grown to a chain of more than 700 stores.

The opening of HomeGoods will come on the heels of the openings of other new merchants at Kentucky Oaks Mall this year, including Burlington, Ross Dress for Less, H&M and Shoe Dept. Encore.  Discussions are also underway with other merchants and restauranteurs interested in opening for business at the mall.

Along with the addition of new offerings, work is currently underway to enhance the overall experience for mall visitors.  The CFSB Children’s Play Area is in the process of being relocated to the JCPenney Concourse.  A Grand Reopening Celebration will take place on March 23, coinciding with the arrival of the Easter Bunny at the mall.  More details about this event will be available soon.  In the meantime, work crews will soon be installing new lighting, carpeting, décor and other improvements throughout the mall.  This project will be completed in the early fall.
