Saks Reopens In Recovering New Orleans

Saks Fifth Avenue is reopening in New Orleans today, making it the first department store to reopen in the downtown area devastated by Hurricane Katrina.

The store had been looted and suffered fire damage. Saks executives put accelerated reconstruction plans in place to restore the location. Other downtown department stores such as Lord & Taylor and Macy’s remain closed.

The New Orleans Saks will continue to focus on women’s ready-to-wear.
