Cabela’s has submitted plans to build a 72,000-square-foot outdoor store at the Cornerstone of Centerville development, Centerville city officials said this morning.
If the plans are approved, Cabela’s would become the third and final retail anchor store in Cornerstone of Centerville North, joining Costco, which has already opened, and Kroger, which submitted plans Friday to open a new store at the site. Plans call for the Kroger store to be built just east of the existing Costco store, and the Cabela’s store would be east of the Kroger store adjacent to I-675, with each anchor store facing Feedwire Road east of Wilmington Pike.
Cabela’s operates a store in the Columbus area and is in the early stages of building an 82,000-square-foot store on Liberty Way in West Chester Twp. The retailer of hunting, fishing and outdoor gear expects the store to open the West Chester Twp. store in fall 2015.
Cabela’s spokesman Nathan Borowski declined comment in an email, saying, “We haven’t made an official announcement regarding a Dayton location, and I cannot speak about potential new-store locations.”
Centerville city officials said there is no precise timetable for the Cabela’s project, but workers could break ground as early as this spring.
Plans for both the Kroger and Cabela’s stores will be presented to the Centerville Planning Commission on Jan. 27.
