| B&N at Sunset Place, Miami | |
Barnes & Noble will close stores in Miami, Fla., and Aurora, Colo., early next year and relocate one of its Tucson, Ariz., stores.
The B&N store in the Shops at Sunset Place in South Miami, Fla., will close permanently on January 13, 2027. It has been in operation since 1999. The company attributed the closure to the end of its lease and the planned redevelopment of the shopping center in which it resides. After the closure, four B&N locations will remain in the Miami area.
The B&N in the Aurora City Place shopping center in Aurora, Colo., will close permanently on January 13, 2027, as its lease comes to an end. The store opened in 2003. The company has opened three new stores in Colorado in the past two years, and in 2024 purchased Tattered Cover Book Store.
The Tucson B&N located at 7235 N. LaCholla Blvd. on the city's west side will be relocating to the newly constructed Uptown Plaza shopping center. The store's last day of business at 7235 N. LaCholla Blvd. will be January 13, 2027. It is expected to reopen in its new space shortly thereafter. Last month, B&N relocated a store on Tucson's east side to a new location.
