Shoe Station to move to closed Prattville Books-A-Million location

Shoe Station is moving into the closed Prattville Books-A-Million location.

The bookstore closed in June and served as an anchor for the sprawling Prattville Town Center, located at the intersection of U.S. 82 and Cobbs Ford Road. Other anchors include Target and Home Depot. The center opened in the late 2000s during the city’s retail boom.

A sign on the door reads that Shoe Station will open in May.

The move likely will cause another empty anchor location in a other shopping center about a mile away. Shoe Station is currently in the Premiere Place Shopping Center at the intersection of Cobbs Ford Road and McQueen Smith Road. Wal-Mart Supercenter is the anchor of that shopping center.

Company officials with Shoe Station did not return emails seeking comment for this story.
