BUFFALO, N.Y. — A new family-oriented store will be opening this week at the Walden Galleria.
On Friday, October 2 at 9 a.m., the LEGO store will host its grand opening. The new store will be located on the first floor near Dick's Sporting Goods and Michael Kors.
Molly Martin, an official at the store, said it's not just about buying a new toy. It's about the experience the LEGO store can offer people.
"The experience is so important to us," Martin said. "We want to make sure that shoppers feel comfortable and are ready to go in and know what they want to purchase so it’s really important for us that we have those brick specialists in our store to help you find the right product to buy."
In addition to selling LEGO of all sorts, the store will eventually offer hands-on activities like a Pick & Build Wall and Build A Mini Tower. However, these activities are all on hold due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
The mall announced Tuesday that mall hours will return to normal on Friday, October 2.
Effective Friday, the hours will be:
- Monday – Saturday: 10 a.m. – 9:30 p.m.
- Sunday: 11 a.m. – 6 p.m.
Pyramid Group, the owners of the Walden Galleria, want to remind guests that restaurant venues may continue to offer extended hours into the evening and are encouraged to call ahead to confirm a specific venue’s hours of operation.
