L.L.Bean announced the grand opening of the company’s newest retail store at The Shops at Yale in the Broadway District of New Haven on August 3 at 9 a.m.
“New Haven offers outstanding outdoor recreation opportunities from strolling through the green to paddling rivers and streams to hiking in nearby state parks,” said Greg Elder, vice president of stores at L.L.Bean. “We’re excited to bring our outdoor expertise to The Shops at Yale and help everyone in the New Haven area enjoy the outdoors we all share.”
“We are delighted to welcome L.L. Bean to the Broadway Shopping District at the Shops at Yale,” said Lauren Zucker, associate vice president for New Haven Affairs and University Properties at Yale. “Yale University’s community investment program supports the growth of New Haven, reinvigorating New Haven’s downtown.”
This will be L.L.Bean’s third retail store in Connecticut, and its 38th retail store outside of Maine. L.L.Bean currently operates retail stores in Danbury and South Windsor. The new store will employ over 20 people.
