“You’re going to have locals from Battery Park City, the tourists and then the office population,” Robert Fader, the vice president of Posman Books, told the Journal. “No question that the whole area is going to be hot from the river to Broadway.”

Other retailers expected to set up shop at Brookfield Place when it reopens in 2015 include Hermes, Ferragamo, Zegna, Michael Kors, Diane von Furstenberg and Bonobos.
