H&M hip, modern look struts to Waco

​WACO - ​H&M, a large fashion retailer, is opening a 21,000-sf store in Richland Mall that is set to open in fall 2016. 

H&M will occupy space previously used by Express, Lunar Golf and Shoe Department.

Lunar Golf will be relocated to a smaller space in the mall and reduced from 18 to nine holes of competition.

Shoe Department, meanwhile, has been temporarily assigned to the former Gap space while its new spot in the mall is being renovated.

"The new H&M location will offer Waco residents a one-stop shopping destination for quality clothing for the whole family, with collections for ladies and men, as well as separate ‘store within a store’ sections for accessories," according to a news release supplied by the retailer, which 15 years ago opened its first U.S. store in New York.
