Macy's is closing 14 of its 790 stores in the coming months, which will result in more than 1,300 layoffs.

Final clearance sales will begin Monday and run for eight to 12 weeks at the affected stores. 

One of the Macy's locations that is closing in Southfield, Mich., has been open for more than 60 years. 

Here are the stores that will close and the number of employees at each location who will lose their jobs.

  • Metro Center, Phoenix, Ariz. (opened in 1973; 88 associates)
  • Cupertino Square Mall, Cupertino, Calif. (opened in 1997; 111 associates)

  • Southland Mall, Memphis, Tenn. (opened in 1966; 112 associates)

JC Penney also announced last week that it would be closing about 40 stores within the next year. 

Macy's says the closures are part of restructuring its merchandising and marketing operations in response to changes in the way customers shop in stores and online.
