Heading Uptown: J Crew

August 26, 2010

J. Crew is at it again, and this time they’re heading north. GQ pulled back the curtain to reveal J. Crew’s new Uptown location. Located at 1040 Madison Avenue, on the site of a former bank, this store has all the bells and whistles that can be found in its Downtown counterparts – the Men’s Shop and the Liquor store. I’m continually impressed with J. Crew’s innovation, strategic expansion and willingness to go-to-bat for the smaller designers. This new store carries all the great collaborations as well as J. Crew classics, and has an aesthetic that’s sure to impress the Madison Avenue crowd. Get in there while the gettin’s good.
