Anthropologie May Be Coming to Old Blockbuster Site
The women's clothing store could be moving into the vacant space at 412 Washington St.
This article has been corrected to show that the lease to 412 Washington St. has not yet been signed. It is not yet certain that women's clothing store Anthropologie will occupy the space.
The lease at the old Blockbuster site, where women's clothing store Anthropologie may come next, hasn't been signed yet, said realtor Karina Abad, from RE/MAX Gold Coast in a phone interview on Monday night.
In a blog post Abad announced the lease, but later said the deal wasn't done yet.
