Coach opening at Metrotown

I happened to be on the Metro website looking at the job postings, and I noticed they're hiring for a Coach store!
I'm trying to figure out where it's going to go in.....maybe where the old Roots store was down by Chapters?

they'd probably go for roots because it's the only big-ish area open up on the heavier traffic side of the mall, plus the store is pretty spacious to begin with.

i wonder why they'd put one in metrotown, since they already have at least two locations in vancouver (burrard and oakridge [i think])

pinkyswear is right, all metro needs is a uo and h&m (and sephora) .. it's already like an indoor robson.

It's probably gonna be at Roots' location, like you guys said.
I really don't want and H&M or UO at metro though because then, everyone at my school will start shopping there too and everyone at my school will look the same.

^ a lot of people look the same anyways, more or less. not everyone, but a good chunk

oh well, it's not like everyone who shops at metrotown will shop at coach anyways.

^ That's true. But at the same time Metrotown has such a huuuge shopping demographic, literally like, everyone goes there! At Oakridge (which is close to my house) you can totally tell the demographic is different - all the stores are like high end and expensive, WHICH SUCKS cause it's not really practical shopping for me.

Yay! That's exciting.
AGRRED, they need a UO and Sephora. at least Sephora is coming to Pacific Center in Fall.

^ Wait, so it's confirmed?? I vaguely remember talking about this, BUT REALLY? I'm getting excited all over again!!

^Yeah I remember someone posting here a few months ago that they had e-mailed Sephora and they confirmed a store opening in Vancouver.

Makes sense, they have them in Edmonton and Calgary already!

^&^^ Yup, its confirmed! You can try emailing them too, if you want to see!
Also e-mail @ rsvp@sephora.com to attend opening day festivities!

Well I agree on the not having Urban Outfitters at Metro. I like the fact that there's only one Downtown. It does give a small hope of individuality when its not EVERYWHERE. I was wondering why Roots moved to such a smaller location. I really like the idea of boutiques instead of mall shopping, but I guess having Coach inside Metrotown will be .. more convenient ? But we most definitely need a Sephora somewhere in Vancouver !
