SAN FRANCISCO (KGO) -- Old Navy announced on Friday it will close its San Francisco Market St. store after nearly three decades.



A Gap Inc. spokesperson said it will close to the public on July 1, and its lease will expire on July 31.



The company said it is looking at other locations in downtown San Francisco that "will better serve the needs of the business and our customers."



Gap Inc. also said it has opened four new stores (Old Navy, Gap, Banana Republic and Athleta) at the company's newly remodeled global hub at 2 Folsom St. in San Francisco last year.
