Barnes & Noble recently opened a new bookstore in the Dalewood II shopping center at 381 North Central Ave, Hartsdale, N.Y. The location features B&N's latest bookstore design. Until 2007, B&N had a store nearby that closed because, at the time, retailers were leaving the area.
"Our return to Hartsdale is a perfect example of the turnaround in bricks-and-mortar bookselling," B&N noted. "A decade ago, Barnes & Noble closed stores at an alarming rate. Now we are able to open increasing numbers of beautiful new stores, entering communities we'd not yet served and returning to those we've sorely missed."
