Urban Outfitters Herald Square: Almost Open!

The big Urban Outfitters Herald Square opening day is Saturday, June 7th, and we can't wait.

Looking towards Urban from Herald Square at 35th and Broadway.

Yes, this is their biggest store ever, and will be home to Intelligentsia Coffee, without walls (buying this entire page), West Coast independent music store Amoeba Music, Three Potato Four, Tortoise & Blonde, and LA's Hairroin Salon.

35th Street entrance and Hairroin salon locale.

This is a huge addition to the retail scene in the 34th Street District, and we couldn't be happier they are moving in. Welcome, Urban Outfitters, to one of New York City's busiest retail corridors!

Now on Sale: New York City Street Signs

Today's post subject is particularly close to my heart as I see them almost every day: New York City street signs recently retired from the 34th Street District.

Shop these custom-designed street signs on our sister company's shop. Need I say this is possibly the most perfect Father's Day gift you'll find this year?! And if you buy before Father's Day, you'll get a free Bryant Park book and t-shirt.* For a full range of streets (Broadway to 34th Street to, yes, Fashion Avenue!), click the above link, or if you're looking for a way-finding sign pointing the way to Madison Square Garden or the Empire State Building, click here.

Have a favorite subway line? We've also got subway way-finding signs directing riders to their station:

It doesn't get more New York City than this. These signs were previously in use in the 34th Street District, and all pieces bear distinct wear patterns resulting from everyday use and weather conditions. Prices are $200 for the street signs and $250 for the way-finding signs. If you'd like a particular street block (eg: 463-479 Seventh Avenue, see above), email bpshop@urbanmgt.com for availability. 

All proceeds from sales go back to the non-profit company, the 34th Street Partnership (owner of this blog and my employer), to support its design, sanitation, security, and horticulture departments that beautify and maintain the area's streets and parks.

* see store homepage for details, L or XL Musical Chairs t-shirt only

34th Street Weekend Pick: Macy's Herald Square

Macy's HSQ

Not only is Macy's Herald Square having a big sale for Memorial Day weekend, but they are also hosting a pre-sale event through June 3rd for their next Friends & Family sale. How does pre-sale work? Visit the Herald Square store and shop now before the sale starts. Your pre-sale merchandise is held for you until pickup is available on or after June 4th. Pre-sales: doing what they can to ensure you get exactly what you want in your size and favorite styles! 151 West 34th Street between Broadway and Seventh Avenue

Best, as Macy's has noted, this Friends & Family sale is just in time for Father's Day. We recommend the newly renovated men's section at Herald Square (almost 200,000 square feet devoted to him)...

 ... and specifically, some classic looks for Dad this season, including Polo Ralph Lauren and Lacoste. Both brands have gorgeous, shop-in-shop boutiques in Macy's Herald Square, with Lacoste boasting the largest ever shop-in-shop on the second floor.

But maybe you're not shopping for Dad? In that case, Macy's Herald Square is happy to help you treat yourself with a little something from their fine jewelry department.

And a reminder to all of our out-of-town shoppers: Don't forget the new, state-of-the-art Visitor Center on the Mezzanine Level.
