REI to open in Columbia Crossing

Google Image Result for http___brightcellar.com__graphics_rei_logo.jpgREI announced recently that it will finally open a Columbia Maryland location!! This will be REI’s 4th Maryland store.

I love REI. I have used REI adventures twice to plan my hikes through Slovenia and Kilimanjaro and have always bought my camping and hiking gear through them. Matter of fact , my daughter and I were at the college park store just last week and I was miffed that the supposed Columbia location never opened off of 175 and 108 as was rumored several years ago. The space next to Best Buy remained empty for a long time giving hope that they may still come to town. Now it appears it is being subdivided and REI has committed to new space in Columbia Crossing.

    As an REI employee, I can shed some light on the supposed location off of 175 and 108. That space was never intended for us, as it was built buy HTO (Hudson Trail Outfitters) initially. When they pulled out, the developer approached us. I don’t have to tell you about some of the intricacies of commercial real estate, so suffice to say, it did not work out.

    But we are indeed coming to Columbia and are thrilled to be finally be in the area and to have the news out!

    Yes.. REI will be opening a 24,000 SF store in the fall. In addition, Toys R Us will be relocating along with another division, Babies R Us to the former Expo in Columbia. The current Toys R Us at Columbia Crossing will close when the new store opens. As for the former Expo.., these two stores will only take about 2/3 of the space, so the new owner, Madison Marquette, is looking to back-fill the remainder of the space.
