The impeccably renovated 100,000 square foot space will carry a wide-range of styles for men, women and children with new merchandise arriving weekly in apparel, footwear, outerwear, handbags, accessories and fragrance departments.

Alongside their relaunch, Century 21 unveils an updated logo, with "NYC" replacing "Department Stores" in celebration of the brand's birthplace and re-imagined flagship.

"Although the past 3 years have proven a difficult time for all, New Yorkers will always endure!" says Raymond Gindi, Century 21 Co-Chief Executive Officer. "The amount of love, passion and excitement since announcing that we are coming back has brought an energy to downtown Manhattan and we are so excited to be reopening at our original location with a focus on the designer-fashion apparel and accessories that has been a core part of our business from the start."

In celebration, Century 21 tapped NYC-based artist Timothy Goodman to create three larger than life murals using objects and words that accentuate Century 21's place in NYC''s fashion scene. Taking cues from the city's culture, boroughs, landmarks, fashion and NYC icons such as bridges, subways, taxis, music, food, accessories and of course, Century 21's iconic shopping bags,the 3 murals highlight Goodman's signature style of bold art and language.

The flagship location will be celebrating its comeback with a grand reopening ceremony at its downtown location tomorrow, May 16th beginning at 12:00 PM and will feature: prizes and giveaways from affiliated brands and downtown businesses; a runway- inspired photo booth; a personalization station for NYC themed patches and pins; Fashion illustrations from renowned artist Izak Zenou and complimentary, classic NYC treats and more.
