Outback moving to old Hops location; Tuesday Morning, Carter's coming to Butler

The former Hops Restaurant in the 3700 block of Southwest Archer Road is seen on Feb. 2, 2015.

Butler Plaza soon will be welcoming two new tenants -- a Tuesday Morning home goods store and a Carter's children's store -- while the Outback Steakhouse will be relocating to the former Hops Restaurant.

Tuesday Morning sells a variety of home goods: small appliances, bath and body items, clothes and accessories, luggage and seasonal goods. It will be opening in the 3700 block of Southwest Archer Road between Trader Joe's and PetSmart.

This will be Gainesville's second Tuesday Morning, the first being in the Plaza Royale shopping center on Newberry Road.

Through a Butler spokesperson, Tuesday Morning declined to offer a potential opening date.

Carter's sells children's clothing, gifts and accessories. It is scheduled to open in March in the 3900 block of Southwest Archer Road in the former Pac Sun spot between Target and Old Navy.

The nearest Carter's locations are in St. Augustine, Jacksonville and Orlando.

These two new stores will bring more jobs and revenue to the area as well as the additional shopping options, Butler President Deborah Butler wrote to the Sun in an email. Our overall approach is to fulfill all the needs and wants for both shopping and dining right here.

This approach includes bringing many new-to-the-market retailers to Gainesville and eliminating the burden of traveling elsewhere."

A current Butler tenant, Outback Steakhouse, will be switching spots within the complex but declined to offer specifics.
