HOBOKEN, NJ —The Baby Gap children's store in Hoboken has posted a sign in the window saying it will close soon, and eagle-eyed Reddit users have found evidence that a Nike store may arrive in its place. The Baby Gap store at 222 Washington St., part of the Gap chain, posted a sign earlier this month saying they will close. A staff member reached at the store this week said it's likely that they'll close some time in January 2022, but they haven't set a date. Users in a Hoboken Reddit discussion pointed out that last month, an applicant asked the Hoboken Zoning Board for permission for a sign at the location featuring the Nike "Swoosh" symbol. The rendering of the facade describes the sign above the store entrance as a "Nike Swoosh Fastened To Glass." "The mallification of Washington Street continues with one big retailer replacing another," opined one Reddit commenter. Do you have business news or tips in Hoboken? Email Hoboken Patch here.
