What will fill Robinsons-May space?
A Valley Plaza Mall official confirmed that General Growth, which owns and operates the mall, has held negotiations with an undisclosed retailer to fill the vacant Robinsons-May department store space. A decision on a new tenant for the space could come soon. There have been many unconfirmed rumors about what will go there, everything from a Dillard's to a big Target store. Many shoppers have stated they would love to see a Nordstrom or Bloomingdale's at the mall, but that doesn't appear likely at this point. What do you think will end up going there? What stores would you love to see come to Bakersfield or Valley Plaza?
