Marshalls New Shorewood Store Opening This Week

SHOREWOOD, IL — Tens of thousands of Joliet area motorists have passed the "MARSHALLS COMING SOON" sign during the past several months. In the next few days, that sign will go away.

On Monday, Shorewood Village Administrator Jim Culotta informed Patch that Marshalls plans to have its grand opening on Thursday, July 16. The new store is in the same commercial plaza as the Mariano's grocery store, near Route 59 and Black Road.

The addition of the Marshalls clothing store to Shorewood comes on the heels of another major business development for the village along Route 59.

The foundation has been poured and steel beams have been erected for the new ALDI grocery store just north of the Home Depot store along Route 59 and Black Road.

The addition of Marshalls is great news for the growing village of Shorewood, Culotta said.

"Marshalls' decision to open a store in Shorewood this summer not only provides an excellent new shopping opportunity, but it also helps demonstrate Shorewood is a great place to grow a business," he told Patch.
