American Girl has confirmed that their store in Houston, Texas is closing on February 13. The store opened in 2012, so it is not 10 year lease issues that are closing the store like what happened to Miami, but rather a transformation of the Memorial City Mall it lies within, which will demolish the enclosed mall it is currently and transform it into an open-air center. Seeing as American Girl Houston is not a flagship store, it wasn't in AG's budget to redo the store, so they decided to close it.
I've never been to the Houston store, but I do have a online friend who lives in Houston, so I'm honestly really sad for her.
I am very sad to hear that the store closed; as a matter of fact I went to the mall last night to purchase gifts for my niece and it was not until I arrived to the store that I saw it was no longer there. Now, to read why it closed, well this is even sadder. 😔
So sad I've been bringing my 6 year granddaughter every year on her birthday!
Omg! I am so sad! Thank goodness I had my littles birthday party there last year! So so sad! My girls love that store.
So sad we been taking my niece since she was a baby they didnt even give no notice very sad hope they bring it back my niece was bawling
I'm thinking I might know that on-line friend. I met her at our Houston store. We are all super sad.
