Again, in a twist of irony, Auburn has a Bass Pro at the Fingerlakes Mall(or what's left of it). https://stores.basspro.com/us/ny/aub...ark-st-rd.html

There is a Bass Pro opening here when the COVID is over. It should do well as there a lot of sports people here. There is one in Gainsville and Daytona Beach an hour or so away. It will be a mega-store with over 100,000 sq ft.

Not 100% sure, but I've heard that will be closing. There actually is a Bass Pro superstore proposed for Victor, on Rt. 96, and I believe visible from the thruway. The project has been in the making for a couple years now, but without the hype Buffalo got. It is my understanding that when Auburn closes, the Victor store will open.

That could be the case, but I couldn't find anything for sure...

Its been 2.5 years for Victor and nothing concrete. The store here in Jax was announced in 2013 and still isn't open.

I was wondering if the Auburn store would close, as I haven't heard that yet.

The JC Penney store is set to close:

Its seems there is nothing left except the Bass Pro. With the COVID shakeout of retail I wouldn't be at all surprised if the Bass closed. Whether it moves to Victor is unknown at this point.

So, nothing about the Bass Pro closing then...JC Penney is closing a bunch of stores nationwide. What may help is that the Auburn location is close enough to Syracuse and there are quite a few stores across Route 5/20 from the mall.

CK, seems like the Auburn Finger Lakes Mall should be in the Syracuse section. To be honest, I never heard of it until now.
