Macy's Reopens Following Sprinkler Burst Tuesday Afternoon

The department store was closed for roughly an hour this afternoon.


Macy's at Woodbridge Center had to close temporarily on Tuesday afternoon at around 12:30 p.m. after a sprinkler burst on the second level of the store, according to employees.



During the closure around 12:30 p.m., many of the store’s employees were standing outside the Macy’s entrance near Dick’s Sporting Goods.

Signs were posted on both the outside and indoor entrances to the department store saying "Temporarily Closed, Sorry for the inconvenience," and "Macy's will open at 3 p.m. today." 

However, at roughly 1:30 p.m. the store was able to open its doors again. Although the women’s shoes section on the second level was cautioned off with tape, while a crew cleaned the area.
