RIVERSIDE, Mo. — The wait is almost over.
The new building for Riverside, Missouri Red X store will be open for business on Wednesday, February 22. A ribbon cutting ceremony will be held at 8 am.
The store announced in late 2021 that it would build a new 59,000-square-foot store on the southeast corner of its current location at 2401 NW Platte Road.
The renovation of the new building took place on November 30, 2021.
The company’s iconic red giant X also gets a facelift, which includes improved LED lighting and a new paint job.
Red X said its current store will be closed Sunday, February 19 until Tuesday, February 21.
Founded in 1948, Red X opened its current building in the mid-1950s. The store has survived a major fire and three floods.
