Lifestyle retailer Anthropologie is planning to open a store at Destiny USA in the summer of 2021.

Anthropologie is a national brand that sells women’s apparel, accessories and home decor. The store at Destiny will be located on the second level of the mall, near Verizon and Forever 21.

“We’ve been following (Anthropologie) on social media and noticing how people are intrigued by their products and storefronts, so we’re excited to see what creative designs they have in store, pun intended, for us,” said Nikita Jankowski, the director of marketing at Destiny USA, in a press release.

Other than the upcoming Destiny USA location, the closest Anthropologie store to Syracuse is located at Eastview Mall in the town of Victor.

After shutting down in March due to the coronavirus pandemic, Destiny USA, began reopening its stores in July, according to a press release on its website. APEX Entertainment, which is located in the mall, reopened Oct. 7. The liquor store Sip Sip Hooray also recently opened at Destiny USA, according to a press release.

Though some stores have reopened, retailers such as J.C. Penney, Justice and Lord & Taylor have announced the closures of their Destiny USA stores, Syracuse.com reported.
