Flagship store 104 years old. Great building on Fifth and 38th
“Fifth Avenue between West 38th and 39th Streets in Midtown Manhattan, New York City. It was built from 1913 to 1914 and was home to Lord & Taylor’s flagship department store in New York City“
Famous for Christmas window display
I used to take my Aunt to the Eastchester store in Westchester. Green striped awning, Tea room. She’d go straight to the sale racks and find gems She said she was there for the opening in the 1940s.
My aunt shopped at the Lord and Taylor in Garden City L.I. Their prices were a above her pay grade but she loved having those labels on her clothes. She actually began to sew old labels into clothes that she had sewn herself. I loved her dearly but she was a bit of a snob and very brand conscious.
When my kids got married Lord and Taylor was my go to store. I bought a beautiful 3 piece suit for my son’s wedding that originally sold for $375 and I got it on sale for $85!
