O’Connell Development Group welcomes beauty superstore Ulta to our Holyoke Crossing retail center. The 11,000-square-foot store, located next to Barnes & Noble, is the fast-growing retailer’s first in the area. The store, which opened on February 7, has already hired more than 20 people from the local community.
“It’s very satisfying to bring another high-quality, high-profile retailer to the mix at Holyoke Crossing,” said Andrew Crystal, vice president of O’Connell Development Group. “Word got out, and we received a number of phone calls from people in the community who were excited about it and wanted to know the opening date.”
Ulta joins not only Barnes & Noble, but also Bed Bath & Beyond, Men’s Wearhouse, PETCO and Red Robin.
With its one-stop-shopping approach, Ulta offers a full range of both prestige and mass beauty products—cosmetics, fragrance, hair care, skin care and accessories—including its own branded products. Like every Ulta store, this one will also have a full-service salon.
Founded in 1990 and headquartered in Bolingbrook, Ill., Ulta Salon, Cosmetics & Fragrance, Inc., operates 664 retail stores across 46 states and also distributes its products through its website, www.ulta.com.
