New York Hi Style, 6908 Two Notch Road Suite G: Summer 2021 (Moved) no comments
This men's clothing store has moved up Two Notch several blocks East, from this strip across from Columbia Mall to a storefront next to Nick's. As far as I can tell, the move came around June of 2021.
UPDATE 13 March 2022 -- Here is the new location:
Jos A. Banks, 481 Town Center Place Suite 7: Late Summer 2020 no comments
I can't find anything in the local media about this Jos A. Banks location in Sandhill, but going by the google reviews, it closed sometime around August of 2020. The chain has had some difficulty lately, but the parent company, which also owns Mens Warehouse has Just exited Chapter 11, so perhaps things are on the upswing.
There are two remaining Banks in the Midlands, one in Harbison, and one at Trenholm Plaza.
Mark's Mens Wear, 1321 Main Street / 1625 Main Street / 1219 Bull Street: March 2018 no comments
Here are some pictures from commenter Allen J. Rivkin recalling a bit of downtown history, his father's store Marks
The first picture is from the grand opening at 1321 Main Street in October 1963:
As nearly as I can tell, 1321 Main Street would have been just after the vacant storefront next to Cantina 76, which is 1307 Main, and before the SC Education Lottery storefront, which is 1333. However there's really no way to do a true comparison due to the demolition.
The store moved from 1321 Main to 1625 Main in 1980:
There is apparently an ongoing project to repurpose 1619-1625 Main, which you can read about here.
In 2017, the store moved to 1219 Bull Street, the former location of Ritter's Furs:
