Here are all the Macy's, Kmart, and Sears stores slated to close in 2017

While department stores have dominated shopping culture for more than a century, it seems their reign is coming to an end.

Last year was a rough one for retail. 154 Walmart stores closed, trendy '00s brands like Aeropostale went up in flames, and even the athletic outfitting giant Sports Authority took a final, shaky breath before shutting down for good. If you thought it was going to get better in 2017, you're in for a rough ride. 

While department stores have dominated shopping culture for more than a century, it seems their reign is coming to an end. After a lackluster holiday season, Macy's has announced it will follow through on the promise it made back in August, and close at least 68 stores this year. Meanwhile, Sears Holdings, which owns both Kmart and Sears, plans to close 108 Kmart stores and 42 Sears locations over the next few months.

"We are closing locations that are unproductive or are no longer robust shopping destinations due to changes in the local retail shopping landscape, as well as monetizing locations with highly valued real estate," Macy's outgoing Chairman and CEO Terry Lundgren said in a press release. "These are never easy decisions, and we are committed to treating associates affected by these closings with respect and transparency."

So, which stores are on the chopping block? Here's what we know so far.

What is the Monitor difference? Tackling the tough headlines – with humanity. Listening to sources – with respect. Seeing the story that others are missing by reporting what so often gets overlooked: the values that connect us. That’s Monitor reporting – news that changes how you see the world.

Dear Reader,

About a year ago, I happened upon this statement about the Monitor in the Harvard Business Review – under the charming heading of “do things that don’t interest you”:

“Many things that end up” being meaningful, writes social scientist Joseph Grenny, “have come from conference workshops, articles, or online videos that began as a chore and ended with an insight. My work in Kenya, for example, was heavily influenced by a Christian Science Monitor article I had forced myself to read 10 years earlier. Sometimes, we call things ‘boring’ simply because they lie outside the box we are currently in.”

If you were to come up with a punchline to a joke about the Monitor, that would probably be it. We’re seen as being global, fair, insightful, and perhaps a bit too earnest. We’re the bran muffin of journalism.

But you know what? We change lives. And I’m going to argue that we change lives precisely because we force open that too-small box that most human beings think they live in.

The Monitor is a peculiar little publication that’s hard for the world to figure out. We’re run by a church, but we’re not only for church members and we’re not about converting people. We’re known as being fair even as the world becomes as polarized as at any time since the newspaper’s founding in 1908.

We have a mission beyond circulation, we want to bridge divides. We’re about kicking down the door of thought everywhere and saying, “You are bigger and more capable than you realize. And we can prove it.”

If you’re looking for bran muffin journalism, you can subscribe to the Monitor for $15. You’ll get the Monitor Weekly magazine, the Monitor Daily email, and unlimited access to CSMonitor.com.
