Von Maur to open store in Lake St. Louis
Von Maur Department Stores, a Davenport, Iowa-based upscale department chain, has agreed to be an anchor at The Meadows, a Lake Saint Louis lifestyle center.
Von Maur, which currently has 22 stores across the Midwest, plans to build a two-level , 130,000 square foot store that is tentatively scheduled to open in the fall of 2010. It will employ about 225 workers. This will be the company’s first store in Missouri and will anchor the north portion of The Meadows.
The Meadows is scheduled to open in August and is being developed on a 64-acre-site at Lake Saint Louis Boulevard and Highway 40.
