New Target Store Opens On Kings Highway In Brooklyn

BROOKLYN, NY — A new Target has officially opened on Kings Highway in East Flatbush.

The 50,000-square-foot store — found where the Kristal Auto Mall once stood — is one of two dozen "small-format" versions of the chain in and around New York City.

The small-format locations are used in urban areas or dense suburban areas where a full-size Target may not fit, according to the chain.

It still includes a full selection of groceries, apparel, home decor, personal care and beauty products, along with a CVS Pharmacy and Starbucks, according to the company. The Kings Highway location will also have online ordering options so shoppers can pick-up in store or have items delivered to their car.

"Our team works diligently to understand the neighborhood and local guests our new stores serve and build assortments that will best fit those guests’ needs and preferences, while still delivering an experience that’s fully Target," the company wrote in a release about the new store.

Target first announced plans for the Kings Highway store in 2018, according to reports from the time.

It is one of at several new locations that has opened in Brooklyn and New York City in the past few years. Seven others, including a Church Avenue store, are also in the works.

In all, Target has 88 stores in the New York City area.

The 5200 Kings Highway location will be open from 8 a.m. to 10 p.m. every day.
