Burlington Stores is further expanding its footprint in the Big Apple – this time inside of a landmark retail building.
The off-price retailer will open a new flagship store in the upscale Chelsea neighbourhood of Manhattan this spring. Housed in the historic Siegel-Cooper Building, the new store will span two floors and feature Burlington’s “reimagined and more elevated shopping experience”, along with a custom store design inspired by classic NYC iconography.
Burlington will join other off-price giants TJ Maxx and Marshall’s as tenants in the Siegel-Cooper building. The opening will mark Burlington’s 74th store in New York state and fifth in the borough of Manhattan.
Siegel-Cooper and Co. opened what was at the time the largest department store in the world in 1897, taking up the entire block from 18th to 19th on 6th Avenue in Manhattan. The building was well known for its ornate architecture and massive scale.
Headquartered in New Jersey, Burlington Stores Inc. operated more than 1,200 stores in 46 states, Washington D.C. and Puerto Rico at the end of its most recent fiscal quarter. At Burlington stores, guests can find fashion-focused women’s apparel, menswear, youth apparel, beauty products, decor and more at prices up to 60 per cent lower than other retailers.
