Commack Multiplex CLOSED!

I just read in Newsday this morning that the Commack Multiplex permanently closed on September 26th Chat Icon

DH and I went on a "date" to see Aladdin with our mom's sitting a few rows back!

If all goes well, demolition and reconstruction for a Lowe's Home Improvement will begin as early as spring 2012.

This isn't directed to you, the OP, but just a rhetorical question..

Why in fresh hell would they build a Lowe's there? Home Depot Expo is RIGHT next door and Home Depot is RIGHT around the corner.

Am I the only one who thinks this makes zero sense?

Expo's been out of business for a while, it's now a ShopRite.

Actually, it's the perfect marketing idea. It's how a large number of stores operate. Look at all the car showrooms in a crowd of car showrooms on a street. You typically see McDonalds surrounded by other fast food places. Gas stations are usually across the street from at least one more gas station.

The idea is, if you're in that area for a product, you'll give the immediate neighboring competitors a chance, whereas if you always go to HD, you won't drive 5 miles out of your way to try Lowes, but you will give them a shot if it's a block away.

Re: Commack Multiplex CLOSED!

it was gross and needed to go.

I see nothing wrong with a Lowes being near a Home Depot. Competition baby, keeps prices down. Its the way of the world. Plus a Lowes will be a more upscale shopper than the Commack Movie Theater did.
