I have a very difficult time believing Neiman's would launch its first Manhattan location in such an undesirable area, especially as they already have Bergdorf's on 5th Avenue. If a department store were to locate in the Hudson Yards, I would think it would be something foreign and something new to the US market, to actually provide a splash and give recognition to the neighborhood. Harvey Nichols is a stretch, but who knows... I guess any truly luxury tenant is? (Coach is certainly not luxury and actually quite mass-market, which is why the HY are so suitable).
