Comprising a whopping 650,000 sq ft of retail space, Saks' 10-floor flagship store is home to the 'Shoe Salon,' NYC's biggest women's-shoe department. Other strengths include the revamped beauty floor and men's departments, the latter home to a coloring salon by Joel Warren and a sharply curated offering of fashion-forward labels. The store's January sale is legendary.
A $250-million renovation completed in 2019 brought several big changes, such as new retail areas in the basement level and an outpost of the high-end Paris restaurant L'Avenue on the 9th floor.
