Wild Dear Chamber Member: It’s that time of year again where the temperatures dip down low and the holiday spirit soars. There is so much going on this time of year in our All American City, and I want to wish you and yours a very happy holidays and hope the New Year brings you happiness and prosperity. We have officially kicked off the 10th annual Shop & Dine Westland Holiday Campaign. Shop and Dine is a 6-week multifaceted marketing campaign entitled "Shop & Dine Westland" which promotes Westland's premier shopping district as a location that bears "Everything you want. Everything you need" for everyone's holiday season shopping list. The Campaign includes television commercials, radio ads, billboards on major freeways and digital and social media pro - motions. As part of the City of Westland’s Shop and Dine Campaign, we will once again be giving away a shopping spree to the Westland Shopping Center. This year we have amped it up and will be partnering with Jay Towers in the Morning to give away TWO $5,000 shopping sprees! Jay Towers, along with the WNIC promo team will be on site giving away additional prizes and doing a live broadcast from the event! Everyone present at the Mall on Saturday, December 14 from 10am to 12pm will have a chance to win the grand prizes and there will be additional prizes given away throughout the event! As we continue with the festivities at this time of year and upon what I hope was an enjoyable Thanksgiving spent with loved ones, I would like to remind you that the City is hosting Deck the City Hall beginning at 5:30 p.m. on Monday, December 9. On hand to kick off the holiday season in our All American City will be Santa and Mrs. Claus, City officials and all the good boys and girls who call Westland home. I hope you will take time from your jam-packed schedule to find a few minutes to spread holiday cheer with all of us as we throw the switch to light up city hall. A number of you reached out over the holidays to list your job openings on our Westland Works! page. I hope that you found this to be a useful service and that you were able to find qualified, hardworking individuals to help get you through these busy months.

  • Eastland, Westland Macy's Among 68 to Be Closed
    Eastland, Westland Macy's among 68 to be closed JC Reindl and Georgea Kovanis , Published 4:55 p.m. ET Jan. 4, 2017 (Photo: Getty Images file) Macy's stores at Eastland Center in Harper Woods and Westland Shopping Center will close later this year as the struggling department store chain continues to cope with the migration of shoppers to the Internet and away from many traditional malls. Stores at Lansing Mall and at Lakeview Square Mall in Battle Creek are also scheduled to close, bringing to 68 the number of Macy's stores to be shuttered sometime in early spring. There are 19 Macy's in Michigan and 730 stores in total. The closures are yet another challenge to the long-term health of shopping malls, which have long relied on department stores like Macy's as anchors to draw traffic. But retail experts say the era of the large department store is winding down as shoppers embrace Amazon.com and other websites and come to prefer smaller, specialty boutiques for their real-life shopping. “It's like two paradigms are ending — bricks and mortar and anchors," said Ken Dalto, a Bingham Farms-based retail analyst and management consultant. The last Michigan Macy's to close was in Northland Center in Southfield; it proved the death knell for what was the nation's first regional mall. Within weeks of the early 2015 news that Macy's was leaving, the mall announced that it would completely close. “It’s going to be very hurtful for both of them," Dalto said of the post-Macy's Eastland and Westland.
