These are the At Home stores that will be closing in New York in 2025 – Check the locations in NYC, with two affected sites

At Home furniture chain closes dozens of stores after Chapter 11 bankruptcy

The 29 stores deemed unproductive by the down-falling furniture chain At Home, have filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy and shall therefore be liquidating by the 30th of September 2025, with two prime locations in New York City being included. Having been more than $2 billion in debt and faced with harsh economic conditions, the Texas retailer, with a presence at about 260 locations all across America, asserted that this was the basis for the restructuring.

Financial pressures caused the bankruptcy

Undergoing a comprehensive restructuring in which substantially all of At Home’s funded debt would be cancelled and $200 million was to be injected as fresh capital, the Company filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection on June 16, 2025. An accord has been reached with lenders, including Redwood Capital Management, Farallon Capital Management, and Anchorage Capital Advisors, that hold more than 95% of interest in the debt.

CEO Brad Weston explained that the company is “operating against the backdrop of an increasingly dynamic and rapidly evolving trade environment,” while navigating the impact of tariffs. Court documents reveal that At Home sources approximately 90% of its goods from foreign markets, making it unique in that such unwarranted tariff increases and trade policy instability pose great risks.

The retailer here faced several economic black clouds in the form of rising interest rates, persistent inflation, and gigantic customs costs arising from rising tariffs. These factors in the macroeconomic environment, coupled with reduced foot traffic in stores and increasing competition from online retailers, have all been putting a lot of pressure on the company’s revenue and cost structure.

Go-Thanks sales underway 

Store closing sales began at the aforementioned locations in June 2025 with discounts of up to 30% throughout the home furnishings, furnishings, and seasonal merchandise inventory. The sales are being coordinated by Hilco Consumer-Retail, who are specialists in retail liquidations. There will be no returns accepted at any of the closing stores, and the stores are no longer accepting gift cards. 

The liquidation will not only include the products available for sale but also includes store fixtures and equipment, and everything has to be sold by September 30. Customers should shop for the best selection at their earliest opportunity because anything popular is expected to be gone very quickly.

New York City locations affected

New York City is home to two At Home stores shutting down:

  • Bronx Location: 300 Baychester Avenue, located in the Bay Plaza Shopping Center in Co-op City. This store served residents of the Northeast Bronx with affordable furniture, seasonal items, and home accessories, which was the only operating At Home in the borough.
  • Queens Location: 6135 Junction Boulevard in Rego Park, located within the Rego Center mall. This location opened in April 2021 as At Home’s first New York City store, occupying 130,000 square feet in a space previously held by Kohl’s. The store closure thus effectively cancels At Home from further New York City engagement just four years after much fanfare regarding its flagship.

Impact on local communities

The closure of the Bronx location is another hit for retail at Bay Plaza, the largest shopping destination in the borough. The store was recently located on the site to capture the dense residential population surrounding Co-op City.

The Rego Park’s impact is also on an important retail destination on the site of the former Alexander’s department store. The Rego Center mall has been an important shopping destination since its phased opening in 2010, and losing At Home adds to the plight of traditional shopping centers.

Store operations through September

All closing stores remain fully operational during the liquidation process. In Rego Park, the store generally operates Monday to Saturday from 9 a.m. to 10 p.m. and from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. on Sunday. However, some stores will close even earlier than September 30 if they run out of merchandise.

Originally, At Home was looking to shut 26 locations, but later adjusted the list, striking some certain locations off the chopping block and adding others to it. Ultimately, the company went ahead and selected 29 closings, or approximately 10% of its total store footprint.
