Paris’ Printemps to Open First NYC Store
54,000-square-foot store will include the remodeling of two floors of the historic One Wall Street building in Lower Manhattan
France’s luxury department store Printemps is coming to Wall Street. The new store in the heart of Manhattan’s financial district, planned for the spring of 2024, will mark Printemps’ first in New York City.
The company announced in a statement that the planned 54,000-square-foot store will include the remodeling of two floors of the 50-story, historic One Wall Street building in Lower Manhattan. In the fashion of the architectural splendor of the 150-year old Printemps store on Boulevard Haussmann in Paris, the French retailer’s makeover of One Wall Street will feature the construction of a new, 364-foot art deco façade facing Broadway.

Founded in 1865, the Parisian retailer of beauty, lifestyle and fashion is returning to the international market. In the 1980s and early ’90s, the chain went global, opening stores in Asia, the Middle East and one in Denver, Colo. — all of which later closed.
The company says it is looking for a return to a global presence and the store planned for New York will be the retailer’s second international outing outside of France. The first of its new international stores will open in Doha, Qatar, later this month.
“The U.S. is essential in our international development strategy and opening in New York offers high visibility and growth potential,” says CEO Jean-Marc Bellaiche.
