#1,668 - Anthropologie store in Union Square closes near Tenderloin of San Frans

San Francisco’s Union Square will soon have another empty storefront.

Anthropologie, a retailer chain that specializes in women’s clothing and accessories, is closing its location at 880 Market St. on May 13, according to the Anthropologie website. The 880 Market St. location has been a staple of the Union Square retail space, and originally opened there more than two decades ago. 

Spokespeople for Anthropologie and its parent company, URBN, did not respond to repeated requests for comment from SFGATE.

Anthropologie joins a long list of retailers that have left Union Square and downtown San Francisco in recent years. That list includes luxury goods stores like CB2 and the RealReal, as well as chains like Gap, Uniqlo and DSW. In March, Whole Foods announced that it, too, was closing its downtown San Francisco location, which a spokesperson blamed on safety issues for employees. (The spokesperson did not elaborate on those concerns when contacted for more information by SFGATE.)
