augusta marketplace

[Zayre88]

The Augusta Marketplace started from nothing to the largest open-air shopping center in Maine.

It started with Wal-Mart, Sam's Club, Red Lobster, Staples and a strip of stores including Michael's, Barnes & Noble, Pet Quarters and Cinemas.

Then, Wal-Mart became a Supercenter, Olive Garden replaced Red Lobster.  Home Depot, Linens'n Things, Old Navy, GAP, Eddie Bauer, Pac Sun, Famous Footwear, GNC, EMS, Kay, Bath & Body Works, Claires and American Eagle were added in a new strip of stores.  

They later added two blocks of stores that included Pier1 Imports, EB Games, LongHorn Steakhouse, Strawberries, RadioShack and Panera Bread.  

Two other building were recently added and they already include: Deb, Lane Bryant, I-Party, U.S.Cellular and Payless Shoesource.

The latest addition includes: Kohl's, Circuit City and Dick's Sporting Goods.  A fourth store will be added and Ruby Tuesday and Red Robin restaurants.

Plans are showing that more than 220,000 SF will be added later...

Unlike other cities where major stores opened in separate retail centers, Augusta got them all at the same big shopping center (1.3 million SF), wich is larger than the famous Maine Mall in South Portland (1.1 million SF)!

AUGUSTA -- A big red dot against a yellow background sits atop a 35,000-square-foot building as a symbol of the newest business development in The Marketplace at Augusta.
The newest addition, Circuit City, will have its grand opening celebration today from 6 to 10 p.m.
Two New England Patriots offensive linemen, Brandon Gorin and Tom Ashworth, will be on hand from 6:30 to 7:30 p.m. The players will be selling autographed footballs for about $25, with the proceeds going to benefit the Boys & Girls Club at the Alfond Youth Center in Waterville and The Edge teen center in Augusta.
The store, which opened Feb. 17, sits next to Dick's Sporting Goods, and a still-under-construction Red Robin restaurant.
Customers are already taking advantage of the wide range of electronics they can find at the store.
"Business has been good so far and it's been busy," said store director Colin Miller.
According to Miller, the store carries "any electronic you can dream of that goes in your home."
That means plasma TVs, computers, video games, speaker systems and more.
The store employs 40 to 50 people.
"I think this is just great," said Bent Christensen of Albion, who was on his way to Kohl's with his wife when they decided to stop in to explore Circuit City.
"We try to do our main shopping in Waterville, but there are some things you can't get there, like Sam's Club and this," Bent said. "Having all of this here shortens our drive up quite a bit since we'd have to go to Portland or Bangor to get a store like this."
The Christensens were looking at DVDs in a section directly in front of the store's "Thumproom" featuring a room filled with walls of stereos and speakers.
According to the Kennebec Valley Chamber of Commerce, The Marketplace already serves about 200,000 people from Augusta and towns nearly an hour away.
"We're enjoying people coming in from Augusta and the surrounding areas," Miller said.
The recent opening in Augusta marks the third Circuit City in Maine. The others are in South Portland and Bangor.
