Abercrombie & Fitch hasn't had an easy time of it in the Boston market, in my opinion. Their eight-story store in Faneuil Hall closed, three years ago, as did their Harvard Square emporium.

Well, looks as though they're going to try again.

Abercrombie & Fitch is coming back to Boston's Faneuil Hall.

The youth-orientated clothing retailer signed a lease Friday for 20,000 square feet in its previous location at One Faneuil Hall Square. The retailer will move back into three floors instead of the eight it previously occupied.

Whatever. It can't make Faneuil Hall any less relevant than it already is.

Don't forget, the Hard Rock Cafe is moving there, as well, next year.
