ALBANY, ORE. — Hobby Lobby has finally entered the Oregon market. The arts and crafts chain recently leased a 61,000-square-foot outpost at the Heritage Mall in Albany. It will occupy the former Gottschalks building. Hobby Lobby is expected to open in the first quarter of 2014. It will join fellow mall tenants such as Target, Sears, Ross Dress for Less, Old Navy, Maurice’s, rue 21, Zumiez, Famous Footwear, Game Stop and Bath & Body Works. The mall is owned by Vintage Real Estate. It is currently undergoing a renovation and repositioning.
