Mathis Bros on Reno and Portland

[kukblue1]

I see the lazy boy store and the Mathis Brothers sleep center have all closed shop on Reno. Is there something planned for this land

Where?

They have multiple locations.

Sorry on Reno next to Bob mills. Corner of Portland and Reno that whole strip center looked closed

Did you notice if Statuary World and the flooring place are also closed?

Did you notice if Statuary World and the flooring place are also closed?

. It was after 5:00 so I wasn't sure cuz I think the flooring place closes at 5:00 stationary world looked closed. There where no cars anywhere in that parking lot for that whole strip plaza.

[Pete]

Thanks.

Let me see what I can find out.

[Pete]

Statuary World has permanently closed -- not sure when.

[Pete]

The La-Z-Boy store is permanently closed as well.

[Pete]

Looks like the Sleep Center and Flooring America are still open.

The Mathis Brothers sleep center was closed. It was on their sign to where they moved to but I can't remember where it was

I think they moved right around the corner (to the south).

I drove by the Mathis Bros complex on the southwest corner of Reno and Portland and noticed it has been fenced off and looks like it might be getting torn down?
Anyone know what is going on?

[Bill Robertson]

I don't know anything but a drive by looks like the utilities have been disconnected. Electrical at least is usually left on for remodeling so my bet is it's going away.

Must be for distribution center expansion. Is the Mathis outlet still open?

I don't know.

There was a Purple mattress store in the closed building. Now there's a big Purple sign in front of the main store. So my guess is the main store is absorbing everything that was in the outlet. And then maybe expanding the main building later if necessary to have everything in one building. I wondered why they didn't do that to begin with.

[Pete]

I took these this (Saturday) morning.

All the buildings facing Reno have been emptied and there is a fence all around. Mathis Outlet just to the south on Portland is still operating.

I haven't been able to find any permits/plans for this property, but it would make logical sense to extend their huge warehouse facility to the north.

[Plutonic Panda]

Wow that would be impressive. Their distribution center is already a monster.

[Urbanized]

Yeah, bye bye THAT place

[kukblue1]

Yeah those buildings have been empty a while. I think I posted about it months ago.

[jn1780]

I guess Mathis outlet's days are numbered too, unless they plan on building a new spot for it. Doubtful they really need it though.

[Dob Hooligan]

I have been told there is not a solid plan for the property at this time. The fenced off area will be demolished (with the possible exception of the part on the west end, which is newer and undergoing evaluation as it might fit into a new project). It happens to be a good time to clear the property and reimagine. I think they are going to make sure whatever is built will be a good and responsible addition to the area that they are so heavily invested in.

[Pete]

The Mathis Brothers had talked about a large sports bar on the east end, but I have no idea if that is still in the works.

[Dob Hooligan]

I think it still is on the idea board

I remember from my Urban Cowboy days, there was a very popular country western club right there. It wasn't my go to place but I was there a few times.

I believe it was Graham's?
