We're not even through the first month of 2025, and the store closings just keep coming. This time, more than 100 locations are on the chopping block, 27 of which are in New York.

JoAnn Fabric, Macy's and Kohl's have already announced closures and it's only the middle of January.

The only sliver of bright light is Kohl's isn't shutting any stores in New York, at least not yet anyway.
