Rack Room near just-closed Super Target in east Roswell to shutter

A Rack Room Shoes store, located in the same shopping center as a Super Target that closed at the end of January, is set to shutter as well.

A spokeswoman confirmed the 2640 Holcomb Bridge Road location in the East Village Shopping Center will close Feb. 11.

“Unfortunately, due to diminished traffic patterns caused by the closing of other retailers in the area, we made the difficult decision to close this Rack Room Shoes location,” she said in an email. “However, we feel strongly that our other many Atlanta locations will continue to offer our customers the convenience and great service they are accustomed to.”
