JCPenney Opens First New Store in 8 Years With Modern Design

Department store JCPenney has been working to make a strong comeback since leaving bankruptcy in late 2020. On April 5th, the retailer reached an important milestone by launching its first brand new location in eight years at the Willowbrook Mall in Wayne, New Jersey. The new 65,000 square foot JCPenney store now occupies the space where Lord & Taylor's store used to be. It's rocking a fresh redesign with an open layout, bright LED lights, movable fixtures, and uses mannequins to display clothing items.
