Sixteen months after being forced to closed due to bankruptcy reorganization, Seattle-based kitchenware retailer Sur La Table is planning to reopen at 326 King Street.

The company won’t say exactly when the reopening will happen, but ALXnow was tipped off after Sur La Table posted a $70,000 a year job for a full-time manager for the store.

“We can confirm that Sur La Table is reopening in the area, but we do not have a timeline we can share at this time,” the company told ALXnow in an email.

Sur La Table, which opened at 326 King Street in 2013, had to close approximately half of its 121 stores around the country. The Old Town store closed at the end of September.
