Von Maur previews $30M investment in first department store in western Pennsylvania

The new Von Maur location will open on November 9 in an 118,000-square-foot former Sears store in a time frame very much in line with when the newcomer to South Hills Village, as well as Western Pennsylvania, was first announced by Simon Property Group in late August 2022.
