Japanese clothing chain Uniqlo will soon fill a long-vacant space in Boston's Downtown Crossing neighborhood.

The brand, which currently has five stores in Massachusetts, told business magazine "Fast Company" that it would open 11 new locations in the United States next year.

Uniqlo said it would open its new Boston store inside a commercial building that has sat empty since the first-floor tenant, Barnes & Noble, left the space in 2006.

“110 Canal Owner LLC (the Proponent) is proposing the adaptive reuse and development of an existing building with vacant office and vacant restaurant space. The Proponent proposes to repurpose the building into a hotel with guestrooms on the upper floors and a ground-floor restaurant. The proposed project will include approximately 82 Hotel rooms, a restaurant, and surface parking in the existing adjacent parking lot. The proposed project does not contemplate any changes to the property footprint or building envelope. All work will be within the existing building.”

This project is dead. The building has been sold directly to an office tenant for a huge discount: https://www.bizjournals.com/boston/...lding-returns-to-offices-after-planned-s.html
