SOUTH LAKE - GOOD FOR BUSINESS! 
Macy's Closing At Paseo

Retail giant Macy's Inc. said it would close a store on Colorado Boulevard in Pasadena as part of plans to shut down six "underperforming" stores nationwide...The store was long overshadowed by the more polished Macy's nearby on Lake Avenue, which enjoyed a major face-lift in 2008 and was always more of a draw for shoppers, said Ron Friedman, a retail expert at advisory and accounting firm Marcum in Los Angeles. 

"Lake Avenue is a great location, and if you had the option of where to be, you would want to be on Lake Avenue," he said. "It's great for shopping and for restaurants. It's just good for business."  Read Article
