New Commercial Development Announced in Springfield, Second Target Location

The Springfield City Council is considering a new shopping center in the area that would feature a second Target location.

Councilmembers say the Sunshine Towne Center would be built at the corner of West Sunshine and West Bypass with room for numerous national retailers.

Those retailers have yet to be named, but officials confirm that one of the businesses will be a 150,000 square foot Target location, which would be bigger than the current Target on South Glenstone.

City councilmembers are still considering the proposition, and will bring the measure to a vote on June 26.
