The new Target at the Shops at River Walk is near completion and is set to open Oct. 11.

The city’s newest Target store will be 139,000 square feet and include the usual general merchandise, as well as expanded food options including produce, meat and baked goods, said Target spokeswoman Anna Anderson.

Other locations include the Northwest Promenade location at 144,000 square feet and the northeast Target at 106,000 square feet. There is also a Target across from Valley Plaza.

Plans are on hold indefinitely for the Target that had been slated to go into Valley Plaza mall before construction was abruptly halted.

“We are continuing discussions with the developer but there are no new updates,” Anderson said.

Anyone interested in working for the new Target can apply at in-store kiosks at any existing Target location, Anderson said.
