Target Salem MA (05/28/2018)

On May 28, 2018 I was able to visit this unique Target store located on 224 Highland Ave in Salem MA which I've been wanting to visit for months, All thanks to this location not being remodeled in May 2018, I was able to see this store in person, looks kinda like Mini Target Greatland with P01.

This Target first started as a Caldor Department Store in around the 1970-1985. Caldor went out of business in 1999 with the 144 others (145 in all). Kmart opened November 1999 and lasted until May 2002. Target Corporation bought the building not too long after and starting construction by revamping the exterior and gutting Kmart/Caldor's interior (The lining from it's Caldor/Kmart days are still there, not like the Hadley Target which was demolished completely and built from the ground up. Instead, this store had it's interior gutted and remodelled, it still looks like the store from it when was Caldor/Kmart). The store opened on 07/23/2003 as a P01 store with a P04 Prototype exterior.

Here's the exterior of the store, it has the P04* Prototype Exterior which is rare

Here's the Cash Registers

Here's all the registers (The first three registers were replaced with Self Checkout which is in a little area near Pizza Hut Express a couple years ago)

Now we shall begin our tour from Guest Services to Electronics

First we start with Guest Services. Notice they repurposed their 1hr photo to display Target's new Love Mickey Display. A kinda cool way to reuse something that isn't in stores anymore (The sign for 1hr photo is still there though).

Green Neon

"I4"
Car Air Refresheners
Car Wash Accesories

Alleyway to Electronics

Home Improvment Isle Marker

Electronics desk (Similar to the one that the Lancaster OH location uses)

Seasonal and more Toys & Games

Like I did in the Matamoras Kmart, i tried this shot out at this Target as well. You can see how dark the background got with the photo focused on the lighting.

Blue Neon. Looks much better like this, makes it more calming for neon fans.

The G department is very small here, not seen in most Targets

Looping back to the Front

White Neon on Red

This shot reminds me on a photo I seen on Google when I first searched this store so I decided to take this photo to show how unique this Target is.

Miscellaneous Photos

Store Map (Physical)
Since this map was created, Self Checkout has been added, removing 3 Cash Registers and 1 Hr photo closed.

Store Map (May 2018)

Aerial view of the store back in December 2000 back when it was a Kmart. Kmart closed 2002. When Target bought the building, the store was completely remodeled. Target still uses the former Caldor/Kmart building unlike Hadley which was demolished and rebuilt.

Target North Attleboro MA Remodel (05/02/2018)

I just went back to the North Attleboro Target (Store #1190) 9 days after the last visit to check on the changes, now let's look in and see what's been going on within the last 9 days, shall we do a tour again?

Exterior Comparison

04/23/2018

05/02/2018 (Notice the "TARGET" labelscar)

Exterior (They have the Remodeling sign now. North Attleboro and Smthfield are two of the 350 Targets remodeling in 2018 (There's 350 more in 2019 and 325 more in 2020 {Lincoln is a 2020 store}, Expect that blog come down the road as well). North Attleboro's remodel will probably be complete around August 2018 and Smithfield will start remodeling in June and be complete in around October 2018. Lincoln will start around March-May 2020 and finish around June/July-August/September 2020 (They got A&A 2.0 already so they'll revamp everything else). Expect around 3-10 of the Targets around RI get remodelled in 2018.

Expect North Attleboro's new exterior to be a mirrored version of the Wilmington NC Target (Store #1107) (Wilmington already has A&A 2.0, E&E 2.0, Starbucks, and the new Exterior Facade) as shown here but with the building to be painted a greyish white.

Now let's move the tour to inside of the store

New Guest Counter isn't ccomplete yet, expect to see a photo of it complete in the near future.

Notice the new grey wall down there

Temporary Fitting Rooms. A photo of the actual fitting rooms can be seen below.

Here's the fitting rooms now, they are working on them currently.

Here's that grey wall from an earlier photo

New Movie Section

New Isle Markers

Shelving labelscar

I wondering what's going over there?

Coming Soon: Bueaty 2.0

Over there is the new Tech Dept

Open

Big changes in store

Notice all those crates in the Parking Lot, those are for Target #1190's remodel

Stay tuned for more updates coming before the complete store coming in around August

"Expect more photos as the remodel progresses"

Target North Attleboro MA Remodel (04/23/2018)

Now that the Target in North Attleboro MA is remodelling to the new redesign. Target is now starting to remodel their Southeastern New England stores. The first four in and near Rhode Island will be located in North Attleboro MA (Store #1190) (Currently Remodeling), Smithfield RI (Store #1404) (Remodeling in June 2018),  Lincoln RI (Store #2073) (Remodelling in 2020 and currently have A&A {Accessories & Apparel} 2.0), and Warwick "Bald Hill Plaza" (Store #1188) (Remodel not announced). Target is planning to remodel another 996 stores as part of their remodelling plans as an addition to the 110 that remodelled in 2017 (None were around RI and Southeastern MA). I figured if I checked North Attleboro's remodel today and see what's been going on. The remodel is expected to be finished between June-September 2018

Their Exterior on 04/23/2018. It's not going to look like this for long.The letters look faded as they will be replaced with the same exterior logo as the Wilmington NC Target has (They only have A&A 2.0 and E&E 2.0).

Here's photos of North Attleboro during their remodel (04/23/2018):

R.I.P Target Cafe (1999-2018)

Coming Soon: A&A (Accessories & Apparel) 2.0

The signage that is normally there was taken down temporally for new grey paint which will be applied in the coming weeks.

Here's where the Tech Counter is now.

Heading to see the area where the tech counter was. Target Team Memebers call it "The Boat" at this location (Lincoln has the same exact counter.

"Big changes in store Can't Find Something? Just ask."

Here's where the tech counter used to be

"Upgrades in store

Big Changes Coming in
Electronics & Entertainment."

Here's where I think Enterance #2 will go. Redesigned Targets have 2 enterance. One Main Enterance and another for Grab & Go. A very unique idea Target. There are Coustomers who want to go in and out quickly so I think it's an excellent idea ;). P97 and P01 are still my favorite Target store designs because the neon looks awesome (Kinda rare to find a Target with P01. My nearest P97/P01 is the Salem MA Target (Former Caldor/Kmart).

North Attleboro Target store map. I'll recreate this map.

Checkout Lights. They look kinda cool. I do like how the numbers light up. They've been there since the first remodel in sround 2011.

Goodbye P09 Wall decor

New Shelving

Jewellery Counter Gone

Target Cart Bay

I had to take this photo as well

Pricing tag, a nice idea for price comparison 😉

This is the status of the store's remodel on 04/23/2018. There will be a blog about when the remodel is complete. There will also be a blog of the Smithfield Target's remodel in the coming months as well (It's starting in 2 months).
