I'd really rather see them with a street level store in somewhere like Buckhead Atlanta, or alternatively Simon should develop their massive parking lots along Peachtree and Apple should locate there.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-579719431387122896.post-19723043320503181032012-10-29T08:12:26.312-04:002012-10-29T08:12:26.312-04:00You really outdone yourself here, this article is ...You really outdone yourself here, this article is really amazing.

The last poster is right though, much luxury retail has been added to Lenox that was not previously there. I think theory was a loss, but then I heard the store only carried women's ready to wear. If it had carried the men's ready to wear, it might have been much more successful.<br />Atlantans are picky about thier designers, and if not well established and not known, they tend to stay away. Barneys CO-OP carried just that type of merchandise, so it failed here as well as in Houston, and I have heard more CO-OP's are going to be shuttered because of bad store performace.Kenneth Benoitnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-579719431387122896.post-82898386112745989132012-09-01T09:02:49.699-04:002012-09-01T09:02:49.699-04:00Well if you must know Majority of the Barney Co op...Well if you must know Majority of the Barney Co ops stores closed for example the Houston store closed thats nothing new. The reason why Hermes isnt in Lenox anymore is because before streets of Buckhead crashed they were supposed to be relocating to that development . Once that development is complete Hermes well open a 2 story store there. Prada Herve Leger Fendi Zegna C wonder Gregorys and a expanded LV and Ferragamo store are the lastest addition to the mall thats pretty good to me.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-579719431387122896.post-38748526344320013622012-08-31T13:37:44.420-04:002012-08-31T13:37:44.420-04:00Ugh, Lenox has turned into a nightmare. I'm ki...Ugh, Lenox has turned into a nightmare. I'm kinda surprised Neiman's has such around there for so long when it's so clear that Lenox is turning into a second rate mall. While I do appreciate a "luxury" wing, everything else around it is so horrid that I'd rather shop online. <br /><br />The suggestion of adding Guess is just as worse as Bebe. I'm so grossed out by all the cheap, trashy, knock off Kardashian club wear that's plaguing the Atlanta retail market. But it's clear that Simon is completely out of touch. The disappearance of Barney's (albeit a co-op) is one of the saddest closings this year. Atlanta is an up and coming luxury market. Obviously something is going terribly wrong when Hermes decided to construct a stand alone shop next to an IRISH PUB rather than pay rent to Simon.kittenmaskshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02620693925776449645noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-579719431387122896.post-85041614821906500272012-08-31T11:46:06.228-04:002012-08-31T11:46:06.228-04:00I heard Cheesecake Factory may move there from buc...I heard Cheesecake Factory may move there from buckhead...

And not only do we have bebe at Lenox, the origional bebe opened in 1992 at Phipps Plaza, so now you have to wonder what will happen with the small bebe at Phipps.<br />Tisha Melay, the Simon Marketing Director must be on acid or something. She had a chance for H&M, Mango, Topshop/Topmen,or maybe a Guess? Flagship and put Guess by Marciano in the former Guess Spot, bring back Restoration Hardware, work a reduced rent deal with Urban Outfitters or the Cheesecake Factory. A nice LARGE Henri Bendel would be nice or a Emporio Armani Flagship. Oh well maybe Tisha is old school and her days are numbered. Maybe Simon needs to bring in the Leasing Manager of South Coast Plaza offer a huge raise and get not only Lenox, but get Phipps back on track as they should be. I guess the second level is being reserved for a WAL-MART ON THE GO store. Haha!!! Just like Sears is in talks with Belk to purchase thier Phipps Plaza store. And the Bloomingdale's at Lenox will convert to a Burlington Coat Factory Flagship. Hahaha. These are just examples of how far Tisha Melay is off course and I only wish that Forbes would buy Lenox and Phipps. They own the Mall At Mellinia in Orlando, and the Somerset Collection in Troy, a wealthy suburb of Detroit. Or even Taubman Centers.
