Target in Midtown sets official opening date

ST. LOUIS – The new Target in Midtown has set an official date for the store’s opening.

The new Midtown Target is set to open on Sunday, July 21. The new 72,000-square-foot store will serve as the anchor for “The Edwin,” a mixed-use development that also features 196 luxury apartments.

The new store, which is near the St. Louis University campus, is located at 900 South Grand Boulevard, between Gratiot and Papin Streets.

The new Target was initially announced in October 2021 and has been long sought after by St. Louis University officials.

“The addition of a Target store near our university is a tremendous win for our students, providing access to convenient and affordable shopping while they live and learn at SLU,” St. Louis University President Fred P. Pestello said. “It’s yet another dynamic hub where our students and the local community can shop and find job opportunities—right here in Midtown.”

The new Target will be open from 7 a.m. to 9 p.m. daily and will include a CVS Pharmacy, Starbucks Café, and Ulta Beauty inside.
