Downtown Reno Might See First National Retail Company In Decades

Downtown Reno might see its first major retail chain in 30 years.

The Reno Gazette-Journal reports Downtown Reno developer Bernie Carter signed a letter of intent to lease the former Main U.S. Post Office’s first floor to a major retailer.  It would be the first national chain to be added downtown in three decades.

A nondisclosure agreement prevents Carter from revealing the company’s name, but he hopes the mystery tenant will inspire renewed business interest downtown.
