College Plaza in Selden off Middle Country Road is going to get a new tenant. With plans to expand across the region, Burlington Coat Factory has proposed to combine three store fronts in the shopping center to build their newest store.
The proposal to Brookhaven Town asks to consolidate all three units under one Certificate of Occupancy for retail use. The consolidated store fronts are the former Bob’s Store, Cleaners, and T-Mobile store. Total combined square footage is 20,660 according to the application filed in August 2023.
Burlington has been on a buying spree for real estate lately, gobbling up properties when Bed, Bath & Beyond went out of business. The retailer has also announced it planned to double the number of stores and focus on stores with a slightly smaller footprint.
