The mall on Manhattan's West Side is changing its mix and converting some retail square footage into offices.
A year later, COVID-19 hit. Office workers, tourists and shoppers faded from the scene, and there was a string of retail and restaurant departures, notably the Dallas-based Neiman’s luxury department store; Forty Five Ten, another retailer from Dallas that had a grouping of small shops for fashion, florals, tabletop, art, gifts and a tea room, and the Citarella gourmet market.
The former three-level, 180,000-square-foot Neiman’s in the mall did house a shop for Chanel, which could one day return to Hudson Yards as well, but nothing is imminent. “We’ve been in on-and-off talks with Chanel,” said Pohlen. He acknowledged that the center was under-assorted in food and beverage, and lacked enough quick service, grab and go, and healthy and organic food offerings. “We have been doubling up on quick service. Four new leases were signed. The fourth floor is becoming an incredible food designation with unique names.”
Retail shops opened in the past year include Monica Rich Kosann, Venus et Fleur, Taft, Le Bella & Co., Levi’s, Messika, Marli and Herman Miller.The Vuitton shop is located on the first floor of The Shops at Hudson Yards, between Stuart Weitzman and Patek Philippe, and across the corridor from Fendi and Kenzo.
The store is designed with a facade of aluminum fins with a silver and rippled edge creating the iconic Louis Vuitton monogram flower — a first for the brand. It’s complemented by silver and bronze cladding.Hanging delicately in the men’s ready-to-wear section is a wall installation of mirrored steel with a cloud-like effect by Paul Coudamy, a Paris-based interdisciplinary architect.
The store is merchandised with Vuitton’s men’s and women’s spring 2022 pre-collections, and new and classic styles. Several capsules will be rolled in, including Nigo and 2054, while on the women’s side the spring cruise and the spring capsule featuring Monogram Denim will be available.
