The Barnes & Noble bookstore at the Stamford Town Center in Stamford, Conn., will close on July 15 when its lease expires. In a statement, the company said, "We have loved being part of this community, and it has been our honor and privilege to be your bookseller for the past 19 years."
B&N opened a new bookstore in High Ridge last year, and also operates locations nearby in Westport and in Hartsdale, N.Y. In a Facebook post, the B&N Stamford store noted: "We have enjoyed the past 19 years in this mall and in this community and we appreciate all of our loyal customers."
