It looks like the long rumored Target next to Home Depot is finally official.

Target to build store in Moore | NewsOK.com (http://newsok.com/target-has-plans-for-moore-store/article/3468633?custom_click=pod_lead_local-financial-news)

News 9 is an idiot! Media/Press is not suppose to announce Target's future openings.

Dude...

NEWS9 is NOT...I REPEAT...NOT...the same entity as NewsOK. Never was. Yes, we were partners at one time, and still sometimes work together, but we each have our OWN WEBSITE. Apparently we did a poor job of telling folks that.

The Oklahoman=NewsOK.com, NEWS9=News9.com.

So there's going to be a Starbuck's inside this Target huh, and literally several hundred feet to the east will be another Starbuck's!!!

The same as the Target on NW Expressway and Rockwell. Starbucks inside the store and a stand alone Starbucks directly across the street. It is all about convienence.

At the same time, I wish Target would do a major remodel of their store at NW Hiway and May.

... Media/Press is not suppose to announce Target's future openings.

Is that some sort of Target rule, or someone else's rule/desire? Just curious.

Would be nice if Marble Slab was included with the Taget as well, just like the one in Norman.

Didn't they just do one last year or the year before? I was in there a few days after Christmas picking up cheap lights and the store looked just like all the other stores in OKC inside and out.

Out of all the Target stores, the Norman SuperTarget is the best one of all of them.

Umm, they just remodeled it 2 years ago.

And people thought 19th st is crowded now. Just wait until Target opens.

This store was remodeled about 5--6 years ago.

Said store was remodeled approximately three weeks ago, thanks.

The Norman store has a Cold Stone Creamery, not Marble Slab.

You know what I mean...Cold Stone, Marble Slab, Concrete Brick....they're all the same.....

Company's policy. This is why they do not list future locations like Walmart does. It is to prevent competition (Walmart) from rushing to open a location nearby. No one is to leak info, but NewsOK was reckless. They should be ashamed of themselves.

Not like there isn't a Wal-Mart across the street.

True, This is the major reason why Target isn't building a supercenter. In a head to head grocery competition, Walmart usually beats Target. Target beats Walmart with higher quality merchandise and better customer service.

They don't want to risk having two super Targets so close to each other.

Edit: Newsok is just reporting what Moore officials told them. Wal-Mart isn't dumb, their looking at land purchases and Moore city council approvals just like everyone else. They have a good idea what Target's business model is. I don't think Newsok gave away any vital secrets that Wal-Mart didn't already know.

the had news and reported it and that is reckless??

So maybe next Target will finally get around soon to officially announcing its new Stillwater store that's been on hold for so long. As with Moore, it probably isn't a Super Target. Meanwhile, Best Buy in Stillwater opens on June 26th.

It was the marketing and economic development director for the city of Moore that put the information out there so I'm not sure how NewsOK should be held responsible. I'm guessing that if since Target is starting construction in August, they probably approved the release of the information. Plus the developer for the site,Direct Development, has listed Target in this development for the last two or three years.

Kids say the darndest things.

so when is the toysrus going to be built, the economic development director said on city channel late last year a toysrus is going in off 19th sometime in 2010, so where is it, is it still in the plans?

Funny......Over 5 yrs ago I was informed by the former chamber of commerce director (Mr. Adamo) that a new Target was in the works. We're still waiting......................

So there's going to be a Starbuck's inside this Target huh, and literally several hundred feet to the east will be another Starbuck's!!!

As is the case with almost every Target on the planet as well as having one down the street.

they did like 2 years ago, when's the last time you have been?

Think before you speak. It's not "reckless" journalism.

Sorry, I'm back out of town so I'm not by there anymore. You're right, it nicer but still not up to the standards of a new store.

Maybe because...it's an old store.......

I was told by their store managers months ago that the Super TRU/BRU was canceled. Company could not afford to do it. I had seen physical plans for it though. It was going to be a one of a kind store of the new super stores they were building. I remember they were supposedly battling for a lease with the Hobby Lobby location and did not want to pay for that lease. It was to relocate the crossroads store and they would close the Norman one when that lease was up. It is hard for them to close the crossroads store because it's a paid for building and they take in a lot of cash, which is something TRU doesn't get anymore, and yes corporate knows that place is a dump.

Maybe because...it's an old store.......

OOOoooooh!! You think?? Congratulations on the brilliant observation!

Sorry. I forgot to use the sarcasm font.

""The new Target ... should spur additional retail to open in and around the 19th and Telephone Road area,” she added."

Good...because traffic isn't congested enough in that area. :(

Like there was a problem attracting retail before.

Huh? I guess public has no right to know what's going in.....per company policy!

First of all this is old news. Second of all, kudos to NewsOK, for updating us on old news reminding people in Moore of the Target they can now go back to expecting.

Um...its the newspaper's job to report news, not cater to the desires of those making the news. If only the Washington Post had followed this rule, there would have been no Watergate.

It may be targets policy but News Ok is doing its job by reporting news that was confirmed by City Of Moore officials. Hardly reckless journalism.

Sorry to say this but get a clue Thunder. Alot of your posts are way more reckless than local media..

Equipment on site at the location of the new Target on Fritts Blvd:

It's Oklahoma. We have everything here. :-/

Well, finally.

I don't know... It may be the site of Moore's 1st Annual John Deere-Caterpillar Tractor Pull/Drag Race/Monster Truck Rally.

isnt that a dry hot picture, the land looks more like something in arizonaThe dirt looks red enough to suit me.

This has probably been answered before, is this a Super Target?

I saw on the leasing agent website it calls for a Super Target.

Unfotrunately no. http://newsok.com/target-has-plans-for-moore-store/article/3468633?custom_click=pod_lead_local-financial-news

thanks

It is supposed to be the PFresh prototype.

http://pressroom.target.com/pr/news/consumables/Super-Target/target-offers-a-handpicked-selection.aspx
Seems like a mini Super Target.

Do these stores look any different than the ones we already have?

Correct. PFresh Targets slot between a regular and a Super Target. They will have a small Meat dept and other grocery dept. items nonSupers do not carry.

If any of you are traveling in the Broken Arrow area, the Target that opened there in 2009 is a PFresh store. It is located off the Broken Arrow Expressway (Highway 51) and Lynn Lane exit.

Can't come soon enough IMO along with the trailer park at I-35 and Indian Hills road, they are both eyesores.
