The Row - The All-Things The Row Thread

Downtown Girls​

I’ve lamented for a while that The Row had yet to open a store in downtown Manhattan. As much as I understand that uptown is the new downtown, I still spend most of my time in the city south of Houston Street, and it would be nice to have an outpost of The Row to pop into. The challenge is that the founders are incredibly particular about retail real estate—they don’t just care about foot traffic and square-footage R.O.I.; they’re after architecturally significant buildings, too.
Finally, it looks like my wish is coming true. According to multiple people familiar with the matter, the company will take over the Issey Miyake space at 119 Hudson Street early next year. We’ll see whether The Row’s team preserves the space’s Frank Gehry–designed interiors, including its signature titanium ceiling. But the landmark building, an old warehouse built for a textile factory at the end of the 19th century, certainly fits many of their criteria. Reps for both companies did not comment.
