Harvey Nichols Expands

[softgrey]

HARVEY NICKS GOES GLOBAL
HARVEY NICHOLS is taking on the world. The famous fashion emporium, which has stores in Leeds, Birmingham, Edinburgh and Manchester, is addition to its Knightsbridge flagship, will throw open the doors of a 32,000-square-foot new venue in Dublin, a 120,000 giant in Dubai and a 60,000 new shop in Hong Kong by the end of September 2005. Founded in 1813, Harvey Nicks is synonymous with the highest standard of luxury, as well as rooting out exciting new names to put them at the forefront of fashion. Having rode the wave of a financial climate that has left some of its main competitors struggling to keep up, it is now set to keep on winning on a global scale. And it's still the nicest place to indulge your shopping addiction. (January 3 2005, AM)

The Union Square area in NYC is SERIOUSLY lacking a department store. Besides that, I really don't see another dept store in New York. But, then again, I said the same thing before Jeffrey opened, and it's been a huge success.
