As a Northside resident, I live very closely to the Kohl's on N. Sherman. That store was newly built about 1.5 years ago and was a large factor in getting the entire Sherman Plaza mall revitalized. The new Kohls sits right across from apartments whose residents may not have access to a car and serves as an invaluable convenience for them. I took great interest that none of the Kohl's in "upscale" areas of town were being closed - just those that seem to be in areas labelled "lower-income" or "working-class".
Besides Copp's stance on non-union labor, what does this say about them that they are essentially poking a finger in the eye of north and east siders? The message seems to be that we, collectively, don't create enough profit for them. Hope you can get to our great store on Hwy 30 though... Unfortunately, it doesn't seem that we have any recourse via a city commission to question these closings. Ah, capitalism....
