North Shore residents will soon have another option when it comes to furniture and décor shopping, as Wayfair has released more information about its massive, new storefront set to open in the Chicago area.
According to a spokesperson, the Wayfair store planned for Edens Plaza in Wilmette is scheduled to open in the Spring of 2024. Officials had previously announced the store, which will fill the vacant, two-story building the formerly housed Carson Pirie Scott, would open its doors in mid-2023.
Construction on the building, located at 3232 Lake Ave., has already begun.
The store plans to feature "interactive experiences spanning 19 different departments," the spokesperson adds, ranging from furniture and décor, to outdoor, home improvement and more.
