That IS great news!

I think another great addition to Lenox would be a Gilly Hicks store. There's 16 of them nationwide, so Atlanta should have one by now-especially since Seattle and San Antonio already have one. Lenox could also use a larger Abercrombie & Fitch store. It's always very busy (usually over a 10 minute line to pay) and is probably the busiest A&F in Atlanta. Even Denver and Orlando have larger A&F's than any in Atlanta.

the A&F store at lenox is the busiest, including the hollister store there... they might stay after the mall gets renovated in 2013 (this year).

That makes sense then! The Barneys space goes back pretty far where Tory Burch will be, so it will definitely be a large store. It is nice to remember how Phipps was before. It is much more upscale now. Abercrombie & Fitch was in the old Barneys space before they moved to Lenox, and I'm pretty sure I heard that A&F took up the current Barneys, Jimmy Choo, and Tory Burch stores. That was definitely one big store. They changed the style of the stores, and they moved to Lenox instead of renovating, mostly because I'm sure the mall switched them out for Lenox anyway. A&F is nice, not as nice as it used to be, but doesn't really belong across from Gucci and Tiffany's. But honestly, Phipps is pretty boring to me since it is nearly exclusive to boutiques, the only store I might shop at is Gucci and the department stores. I kind of wish Atlanta had just one big mall, like the Galleria in Houston. Basically just combine Lenox and Phipps and get rid of Belk, Legoland, etc. The only Belk store I will really shop at is Belk at SouthPark, the true 'flagship' Belk. The one at Phipps is nice for women, but the men's section sucks, but still has bad brands for a flagship.

will A&F and hollister stay after lenox is renovated?

The one at perimeter is large so is the one at Northpoint and Mall of Ga

don't forget the one at arbor place, that one is also huge.
