Aspen Hill Kohl's to undergo remodeling as chain declares it will no longer be a department store

A corporate announcement earlier this year by department store chain Kohl's will become concrete reality by the first half of 2023 at its Aspen Hill location, at 3901 Aspen Hill Road. Kohl's declared last spring that it would soon cease to be a department store, a shocking announcement. Instead, the chain would convert its stores into "focused lifestyle concepts." The company now plans to begin those renovations at the Aspen Hill store in the coming months.

The makeover will expand the Sephora product area inside the store. It will also increase the amount of space dedicated to athleisure, and try to pump new energy into women's merchandise floor space. Self-checkout and self-return areas will be expanded, as well. Cosmetically, new ceilings, lighting, flooring, and some minor exterior paint and signage updates will round out the project.
