Stores come and go in Amarillo, Texas. However, it seems many major retailers are closing up shop and leaving enormous storefronts empty.

That is exactly what happened on Soncy near I-40. Two major retailers have called this building home in the last 20 years. Nestled next to Home Depot near I-40 and Soncy, Circuit City was open in Amarillo for about 20 years until it closed around 2009. Conn's HomePlus moved into the space in 2014 and closed in 2024. This building is one store closer to becoming an Amarillo Cursed Building.

What's Moving Into the Old Conn's Building in Amarillo, Texas?

The new tenant in this building, located at  2510 S Soncy, looks to be a familiar store in Amarillo. All signs point to Burlington Stores opening soon in this location.

We have reached out multiple times to Burlington, but at the time of publishing, we had yet to receive a response on the fate of the Western Crossing store. Will that one stay open, or is the whole store moving to Soncy? If we do receive a response, we'll update this story.

However, if the store is moving, then what does that mean for the building on Western?  Will this shopping center have a mammoth storefront that remains empty for months or years, or will we see something much needed in Amarillo open?

Time will only tell.
