Lincoln Road Snags Three New National Retail Chain Stores
by Joshua Head
Miami Beach FL - June 9, 2009 ---
Lincoln Road, a pedestrian mall between Alton Road and Washington
Avenue, will have three new tenants soon. The mall that is a thriving dining and shopping area is
reported to be adding Crate and Barrel, J. Crew and Sketchers in the
coming weeks.
Crate and Barrel, a home-store where customers
can buy affordable, modern house wares and furniture will open at
the intersection of Lincoln and Jefferson. Crate and Barrel will be a great addition to Miami Beach as
one of only a few affordable places to shop for house wares, with
another being Pottery Barn. Founded in the 1960’s, Crate and Barrel provides European
designs of home products ranging from kitchenware, bed and bath, to
furniture.
J. Crew began operations in 1983 and has
expanded into an iconic American brand known for its sophisticated,
fun clothing and accessories. J. Crew will be opening next to the Apple Store near Lincoln
and Meridian. Fritz’s
Skate Shop held court in that spot for many years until recently
moving to Washington Avenue for more affordable rents. J. Crew sells men’s and women’s clothing.
Finally, Sketchers,
an award-winning global leader in the lifestyle footwear industry
will open next to the new J. Crew. Sketchers sells more than 2,500 styles for men, women and
kids with a product range from fitness to dress shoes.
Lincoln Road, with
the new construction of fountains and shopping spaces between Alton
Road and Lenox Avenue and the addition of new stores such as Crate
and Barrel and the return of old favorites like Pink Palm, continues
to be a major hub of activity for dining, and shopping in Miami Beach.
