What precisely is iconic about that particular location, OP?

Also, just get a damn e-reader like the rest of us in the 21st Century. Ir if you insist on a hard copy, get it delivered to your door from Amazon.

Me too!!!

That’s the best Barnes & Noble! I stayed up till midnight to buy Harry Potter 7 there. Sad.

Noooo ugh. Tysons is becoming a ghost town. I don't even know what retailer would fill that space.

Wut.

I didn't know it was closing.

Oh no! I do most of my Christmas shopping at that B&N every year, Monday after Thanksgiving. Then hav lunch at the Coastal Flats.
Sad to hear it has closed. Someone please update us if a new one opens elsewhere in the mall.
Hard to imagine in this retail age that a mall is pushing out any retailer who wants to be there.

Iconic?

Is it because crime at the mall skyrocketing ever since the metro stop opened?

I heard a staff member tell someone that it’s because mall management wants to lease the space to someone else (so I guess they either didn’t renew B&Ns lease or raised the rent too much).

Why would criminals in VA ride the metro? Don't they all have cars?

It's because Jeff Bezos

FWIW, they had signs posted to this effect the last time I was there. But the staff said they didn’t actually have a lease on another location yet. They were hoping to work that out with mall management but at the time it wasn’t a done deal. Hopefully that changes (or even already has) and they do move within the mall.

I literally grew up at that Barnes and Noble. First as a nerdy teen who sat by the back windows reading comic books; attending the midnight Harry Potter book launch party with my whole family; sitting at the cafe filling out job applications after college; so many coffee first dates when I was online dating.

I’m so sad!!! 😭 why does everything get worse!
