Thousands of workers are set to lose their jobs as a major national retailer announces the closure of 200 stores, 21 of which are located in New York.

The past few years have been brutal for restaurants and businesses across the country. Many well-known chains have been forced to close stores or shut down all together, and yet another is joining the list.

As one discount store closes, another is moving right in. Queensbury will be getting a popular retail chain store.

Big Lots is getting smaller. The company plans to close more than 80 stores in 27 states. 3 of them in New York.

The problems keep piling up for a popular restaurant chain that may close even more locations.

As I was driving through a popular Saratoga County shopping area, I noticed that a usually very busy Starbucks was closed. It was so obvious. Not just because there was no line in the drive-thru, but because the signs and the marquis were completely removed from the building.

One of my favorite chain restaurants in the Capital Region has permanently closed without warning. There was no indication that this location would close. I found out from a Facebook post from someone looking for lobster ravioli.

A fish fry joint that landed at #10 on the best fish fries in the Capital Region list has suddenly closed its doors forever.

There are a wide variety of restaurants along Wolf Road in Colonie but now there is one less. We learned that a once-popular restaurant has suddenly closed its doors forever.

A popular Chinese restaurant in Saratoga County has closed for good after twenty-six years in the community. The owners decided to retire.

Another restaurant and market in Saratoga County has closed its doors. Although its original location remains open, the newest venture only lasted less than a year.

After just six months of resurrecting a popular Rensselaer restaurant, the doors are closed again.
