There are more than 200 Ikea stores in 38 countries but for the longest time the closet outpost for Colorado was Draper, UT or Tempe, AZ. Good news people, Ikea is coming to Denver(ish)! Rumors had been swirling that the Swedish Superstore would be taking up residence in Colorado and there was even an official announcement more than a year ago. Then there was silence. The rumors began again over some sort of hold up due to paint colors. Alas, yesterday the local news reported the project is a "go" again. The store will be 450,000 square feet and will employ about 400 people when it opens.
Holly has never been to Ikea and she doesn't have air conditioning so she is looking forward to an experience similar to this story from the LA Times with a side of swedish meatballs. Kidding, kidding!
