Outdoor branch in the old town of Chur is closing!!!

Outdoor-Filiale in der Churer Altstadt schliesst!!!

Guest

The Sport XX outdoor store at Poststrasse 22 in Chur will close on January 30, 2016, as customer footfall has fallen short of expectations. The Migros Cooperative Eastern Switzerland writes this in a press release. The product range of the closing branch will be integrated into the SportXX Chur Kalchbühl.

No wonder the old town will eventually die out the way things are going in Chur.
Thanks to the city politicians for their longstanding policy of displacement, because reaching the old town is becoming increasingly difficult for people who are not good on foot? ?

Hello @deactivated user



Unfortunately, sometimes such steps cannot be avoided. Nevertheless, I can understand your anger and disappointment.



I hope you and other customers of the previous branch on Poststrasse will find a good replacement in the Kalchbühl branch.



Kind regards
Tanja

Hello Tanja,
It's not about you closing the store,
but that apparently some politicians in Chur want to let the old town die, with various harassments ? ?

Hello@deactivated user

I visit Chur once or twice a year, where I have been staying at the "Sommerau" for years. From there, "Dr Bus vu Chur" takes me everywhere with the ChipCard.

I assume that there is more turnover at Kalchbühl... if only because of the parking spaces.

Question: "There was once talk of the cantonal administration being concentrated in the west. Has that happened?"

I lived in the old town in the middle of the last century, 30 steps to the left I was in front of the Rest. Churerhof, 20 steps to the right across the street I was in front of the Rest. Metzgertor.
A minute's walk through the bread arbor at the bakery or within 3 minutes at the hairdresser, butcher, dairy, pharmacy or drugstore and much more.

"I still want to go to Läba
To be a clinical Khur town boy,
And to be able to make Rösslis again
From the Maiersbode to Rii.

Build a hut on the hill,
Go barefoot in the warm rage,
At the carrot, make an apple pie,
Get tired at the spa and drink water.

Drinking water again
As a boy, straight from the fountain.
And sniff the Schnudarbeeri again
In the garden in front of the butcher.

I bet - nai, I bet nothing!
I know, Khur is still beautiful today.
And yet everything, everything would be different:
I just don't have a mom anymore."

In my opinion, Outdoor by Sportxx will disappear completely in a few years. The market here is far too small...

moinzIstanbul,
thanks for writing ?
yes, the bus goes almost everywhere in Khur ?
I'm not talking about the turnover, but that there are fewer and fewer people in the old city, which makes it difficult to find the city people who are not happy ?
and how aptly do you say that there was once a lot of life in the old town?
I just heard that you are "flying to warmer climes" because have a nice time and don't forget the sun cream ?

The upper town in Burgdorf is gradually suffering the same misery.
