Center City Welcomes 27 New Stores

Center City to welcome 27 new stores as rising foot traffic boosts retail

Center City’s retail corridors continue to shift as new businesses arrive and pedestrian activity rebounds. The Center City District 2025 Retail Report highlights 130 new openings over the past year. These businesses span dining, retail and service uses from Vine Street to South Street.

The openings arrive as downtown foot traffic improves. Core Center City, defined as the area between Vine and Pine streets from river to river, averaged 343,540 pedestrians per day. This figure represents a 3.4% increase year over year.

Rittenhouse Row led all corridors with a 9% gain in average pedestrian volume. Additionally, Midtown Village posted a 7% increase. West Market followed with a 4% rise as more employees returned to nearby offices. Even Market East, long challenged, recorded a 1% uptick in daily activity. The findings reflect Placer.ai data analyzed by Center City District.

Storefront occupancy reached 84% in 2025, up 1% from last year. However, performance varied along several key streets. Market Street reached only 68% occupancy, including 72% east of Broad Street and 62% west of Broad. Chestnut Street posted a 79% rate, with stronger occupancy west of Broad. Walnut Street led the group with an 86% occupancy rate.

Saks to Close Two Philly Locations

Saks Off 5th to close 2 Philadelphia-area stores

Saks Off 5th is preparing to shutter its stores at the Franklin Mall in Northeast Philadelphia and the Metroplex Mall in Plymouth Meeting, reflecting a broader round of closures affecting major metropolitan markets.

The two off-price outlets are among nine locations the retailer plans to close from its roughly 80-store portfolio. The decision follows an internal review aimed at concentrating resources on stronger-performing and higher-growth markets, according to a report by Women’s Wear Daily.

A representative for parent company Saks Global confirmed the closures, expected to take effect in January, describing them as part of a broader strategy to “optimize our Saks Off 5th footprint by enhancing performance and improving the overall customer experience.”

Abrams Realty Plans Major Redevelopment of Berkshire Mall

Philadelphia-area developer plans to demolish, redevelop Wyomissing's Berkshire Mall

Abrams Realty & Development is set to acquire the Berkshire Mall in Wyomissing, with plans to demolish most of the aging 910,000-square-foot property and redevelop the 59-acre site into new open-air retail space.

The mall, currently owned by Namdar Realty Group since 2020, has struggled in recent years, with nearly half of its space vacant and growing calls from local officials for reinvestment.

Developer Peter Abrams, owner of the Elkins Park-based firm, said the redevelopment will retain only the Boscov’s department store, while the rest of the mall will be replaced by new retail construction, marking a complete transformation of the 55-year-old shopping center. Unlike other Abrams projects, the plan will exclude any residential components, focusing solely on revitalizing the retail landscape.

Iron Hill Brewery Closes Three Locations

Iron Hill Brewery & Restaurant has closed three of its Greater Philadelphia locations, including its flagship restaurant.

Exton, PA — Iron Hill Brewery & Restaurant has closed three of its Greater Philadelphia locations, including its flagship restaurant in Newark, Delaware.

The closures affect Chestnut Hill (8400 Germantown Ave.), Voorhees, NJ (13107 Town Center Blvd.), and the original Newark restaurant (147 E. Main St.), which first opened in 1996. Newark marked the beginning of the regional brewpub chain founded by Mark Edelson, Kevin Finn, and Kevin Davies.

In a statement, Iron Hill cited its efforts to adapt to shifting business conditions and focus on long-term growth as reasons behind the decision.

“While we are closing a few locations, this is truly part of a larger growth story — we are evolving, strengthening our brand, and positioning Iron Hill for long-term success,” said CEO Mark Kirke.

Iron Hill, headquartered in Exton, continues to operate restaurants across the Mid-Atlantic as it works to refine and expand its portfolio.
