Lord & Taylor began 2019 by closing its massive New York store after more than a century in business. It will end the year by opening a tiny new one.
The department store will return to Manhattan this holiday season as a temporary shop, according to a person familiar with the matter who asked not be identified because the plans haven’t yet been announced. This will give Le Tote -- the company’s new owner -- a chance to re-connect with customers in the middle of the busy holiday shopping season.
