Tiffany & Company coming to SJTC

[Duke]

Off topic from Tiffany & Co. but was at the TC for dinner tonight and noticed that Omega watches is opening one of their "boutiques" next to Juicy.  Those are really well made watches, I have one that has been passed down from my great grandfather and it still works like new...

CompUSA is relocating their Southside Blvd. location to the SJTC according to their website.  Matching up the addresses this appears to be the location of the closed American Backyard.

That does not bode well for the Regency location. That strip mall just remodeled. I wonder if they are headed to the westside now.

Lol, why the hate on Sleiman?

[tufsu1]

well I meant "nice" in a sad kind of way....but let's be real, he got $3 million from City Counmcil months ago....the only progress I've seen at the Landing was the recent repainting of the bike racks!

^ What is his time-line for the parking lot purchase/ development??  Has the city actually given him the cash yet?? 

His southside stuff can rot.  The Japanese Buffet in the target shopping center is great, but the rest of those strips are a waste.

That Japanese Buffet, Wasabi, is mediocre at best. The last time I ate there me and my ex-partner both got food poisoning.

For the price and the potential quantity of food, It's great.  Does it come close to Sake House or Sumo Sushi? Of course not.  You can't expect world class food from a place like that. 

[reednavy]

I never expected world class from there to begin with, but the quality on a lot of it was bad and they fail health inspections a few times each year.

Is Tiffany & Co doing well?

Yep, looks like they'll be open in time for Christmas.  They've already painted a coming soon sign on the boards that cover the entrance.

Anybody happen to know who is handling the PR for Tiffany's local opening?

Oh ok I thought they were already open

You know, i was a St. John hater because of its location, but I was reading up on it today....they really have some international brands out there. And its not even complete. Im not a big consumer myself, BUT do look forward to when economy gets better, a real anchor like Niem Marcus or Nordstroms and the Navy drops those extra families in Jax with that Nuke boat. I know we bitch a lot on here concerning different topics, but Simon is doing a good thing over there....still hate the location, but its cool. Puma, Louis V, Omega Swatches, True Religion in Jacksonville. Sounds good.
