REI plans to delay the opening of its store in
Tuscon until late fall 2010. The store was scheduled to open this spring. REI spokesperson
Bethany Nielson told the Arizona Daily Star that the delay was due to “developer
delays.”

 

The 28,000-square-foot, two-story space at the Tuscon Mall
will represent its third location in the state. Its other Arizona
locations are in Paradise Valley and Tempe, both
outside Phoenix.
