"Federated Department Stores, Inc is to open a Bloomingdale&amp;#39;s Home Store in downtown Chicago, and also plans to remodel the Bloomingdale&amp;#39;s store at 900 North Michigan Avenue. The new Bloomingdale&amp;#39;s Home Store would occupy 130,000 square feet on four levels in the Medinah Temple building. Construction is planned to begin this fall with a store opening planned for spring 2002. Once the new Home Store is complete, home merchandise would be carried exclusively in this new location. The space previously occupied by home merchandise in the North Michigan store would be extensively remodelled to offer a broader selection of apparel, cosmetics and shoes. Remodelling in the 256,000 square-foot North Michigan store is planned for completion in fall 2002. &amp;quot;Our customers look to us for fashion leadership in all areas of the business and in the new Home Store we will expand our home offerings dramatically,&amp;quot; said Michael Gould, chairman of Bloomingdale&amp;#39;s. &amp;quot;We&amp;#39;ll soon be able to provide even more of what Bloomingdale&amp;#39;s is known for: superior service, an exciting shopping experience and exclusive merchandise.&amp;quot;"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
