Babies R Us is Returning to the Tri-State Area, Connecticut Soon?

The American Dream is really succeeding at being the revivalist of the decaying American retail scene. New Jersey's mega-mall answer to the Mall of America has helped to dust off and resurrect 'Toys R Us' by building a gorgeous new flagship store to accompany the toy giant's rollout in Macy's stores nationwide. Now, word is spreading that The American Dream will assist with another extinct retail resurrection - Babies R Us.

The better part of this news? Just like Toys R Us, we may see Babies R Us in Connecticut again.

But for now, you'll have to take the trip across the Hudson River to get your Babies R Us fix. According to retailcustomerexperience.com, American Dream is in the process of building a Babies R Us flagship store that is slated to open this summer.

Back to the good news, after announcing Babies R Us' New Jersey flagship store, and an online presence being brought back, the chairman and CEO of Toys R Us/Babies R Us said that "This sets the stage for a national rollout of Babies R Us in the future."

As I'm writing this today, babiesrus.com has a splash page with a stork holding a delivery that says 'Babies R Us arriving soon!' with 'Reimagining a new Babies "R" Us Experience'. Underneath, there's a link to Toyrus.com.

I don't see delivery drones flying over Connecticut yet, so I think this will be welcome news to anyone expecting. A 5 minute drive is so much better than waiting behind 15 stops with a crying infant.

Fairfield Hills Psychiatric Hospital is located in Newtown, CT. The campus has been in varying degrees of restoration/development since it closed on 1995. The Town of Newtown owns it and has turned some structures into municipal buildings while others have been leased out to private businesses. The remaining vacant structures have become magnets for ghost hunters and artists.

Recently, I spoke to one of those artists, a photographer named Bryant Abbot. Our digital talk was unique and entertaining. Abbot shared his photos, his personal story and his inspirations with me. Below are his pictures of Fairfield Hills and some of what we talked about.
