Tiffany & Co.
Reborn of an icon. Crown jewel of New York City, Tiffany & Co. unveiled its newly transformed flagship on 57th Street and Fifth Avenue. The building is said to be one of the largest stores in Manhattan. Given a new name known as “The Landmark” – it marks the luxury retail institution’s first holistic renovation of the store since it first opened its doors in 1940.

Paying homage to the building’s iconic original structure, the beloved façade with its Atlas statue and clock above the revolving doors was refurbished. The Landmark’s interior has been completely reimagined. Presenting never-before-seen jewels, immersive displays, and excellent custom artwork to evoke the imagination of visitors about this new world of wonders.
Apart from being a pinnacle of sustainable construction and design, The Landmark was built to set a new bar for luxury retail on a global scale. Anthony Ledru, President and Chief Executive Officer, Tiffany & Co., says, “The reopening of the iconic Fifth Avenue Landmark is a major milestone for our House. Symbolic of a new era for Tiffany & Co., the Landmark is much more than a jewellery store— it is a cultural hub with an exquisite showcase of architecture and superior hospitality, as well as cutting-edge art and design.”

Under the construction of legendary architect Peter Marino and renowned Shohei Shigematsu, an addition of the new three-story volume above the existing building was made, integrating throughout the 10-floor setting as a whole. Its unique design is a tribute to Tiffany’s heritage and authority as the purveyor of the world’s finest diamonds.
Upon entering the new store, visitors are immediately immersed in an expansive main floor of jewellery cases illuminated by an innovative take on a skylight. Nearly 40 artworks by renowned artists, including never-before-seen Tiffany-commissioned pieces are among some of the outstanding features.
