Lord & Taylor’s Newest NY Store Opens

Specialty department store retailer Lord & Taylor has added an 80,000-square-foot store at Westchester’s Ridge Hill in New York, its most unconventional and contemporary store to date, reports Women’s Wear Daily.

The two-level Lord & Taylor houses such features as large, four-by-two-foot Italian white tiles, an asymmetrical racetrack aisle, triangular lighting frames in the ceiling, and metal floor plates at the foot of the mannequins identify outfits.

“It’s definitely the future,” Kerry Mader, senior vp, store planning, design and construction at Hudson’s Bay Co., parent of Lord & Taylor, told WWD.
