Most downtown areas in cities across the country stores closes around 7pm. It's true that Hudson's had closed at 6pm and the stores on Merchant Row followed suite. I wouldn't say that H&M should or will be an anchor store. I still believe as I had said years ago that downtown doesn't need a big anchor store but have smaller individual stores that could be a draw. Having individual stores instead of a department store anchoring a downtown area is a smart way of having a retail district for the whole area won't be affected if one small store closes. Downtown still need a home goods store with reasonable prices such as Bedm Bath, and Beyond and also a good quality furniture store. I feel that downtown midtown area including Jefferson west of Grand Blvd have many closed buildings and warehouse to open an Art Vanm Restoration Hardware, or Bright idea
