Dick's Sporting Goods plans to open its first Washington store at South Hill Mall in Puyallup next spring, according to the Seattle Times. The 60,000 square feet store covers space previously occupied by Circuit City and Linens 'n Things.
It had been empty since the two chains closed all their stores in the past year.
Helped by it's acquisition of Chick's Sporting Goods, Dick's SG operates now has 15 stores in California. It has one in Oregon, with six more locations there “coming soon,” many of them for Joe's Sports locations.
The Seattle Times noted that The Sports Authority plans to open new stores in Seattle and Lake Stevens, in space occupied by Joe's Sports.
