Did a Google Search, and you are correct. I apologize. Very similar characteristics. Now that I know the answer, I'll let others take a shot at it.

That's funny! I just came across the site today with the photo album for that store! So it was a Target (former Richway and later Gold Circle)

stillmn1us

What was this store before Target...

Ameskid

Richway. Saw it in the Richway thread. somehow, though, it reminds me of a JC Penney.....:question:

The store guessing game.... reversed:  Not what this store was, but what will it be?

This is from the lease plan of the Marketplace at Augusta Maine.  This shopping center already has a 24H Wal-Mart supercenter, DicksSporting Goods, Sam's club, Kohl's, Home Depot and more.  Target and Lowe's are opening elsewhere in town.  Sears has a small store in a Mall with Christmas Tree Shops.  What could that store be, with two entrances that have a special shape.

Hint: the lease plan used to show 98,000 sq.ft.

Kohl's

I think i've figured it out....  i've just read that JCPenney wants to open many new stores in the next few years, including several off-mall stores that have a size of 100,000 sf.  It makes sense because the city does not have one and this shopping center is a magnet for new stores in central Maine.
