T.J. Maxx signs lease for South Lake Tahoe store

It’s signed. That would be the lease between T.J. Maxx and the property owners at the Y in South Lake Tahoe.

Now the interior improvements can begin. Those are expected to take three to four months, with the discount retailer able to open in the fall.

This means the store will open in time for the holidays – even though it will be nearly a year after the retain chain originally intended to open.

The manager and assistant manager positions that were posted on the store’s website in May are still online.

No one from the Massachusetts-based company was available for comment Wednesday night.
