Most of the Saks store smell like week
What does 'week' smell like?
I might to be the best grammarian but context clues tell me the word is weed, not week.

People don't shop there, they just steal

Typical NOLA. Believe they have people to pay for upscale shopping,
I mean the store had been there 35 years so it clearly worked for a while

35 years is nothing in retail. Quit making excuses

What a completely asinine statement.
1956 - First enclosed shopping mall opens in the US (Southdale Center in Edina, MN)
1991 -(35 years later) - Enclosed malls EVERYWHERE across the US, "downtown" shopping is a thing of a past.
1991 - Internet in its infancy, no Amazon, Google or Yahoo
2026 - (35 years later) - Online shopping extremely common; "bricks and mortar" stores and chains dying left and right.
And by the way, Saks 5th Avenue has been at Canal Place nearly 45 years; it was built in 1982-83 and opened in 1983.

All that means is that you're mentally/emotionally still 13 years old.

Adlers closed as well. Shame what Canal Street has become and the city of NO for that matter. So much potential flushed right down the shitter.

It’s a shame to see. New Orleans once featured numerous local high end stores. Luxury department stores are struggling, with fewer chains left, and Saks is on the ropes.
Why be in Nola when you can go to the north shore

Struck a nerve? You freaking weenies make every excuse to defend a POS city that is a dump, WITH ZERO infrastructure. Tell me this smart guy. Let me know when a crane is erected. I cant stand idiots like you who make excuses. People and businesses are leaving for a god damn reason.

How big of an erection would it have to be to satisfy you? There is a crane on the new Shell building by the convention center.

Notice I said "new"
It is part of the billion $ river city project and they will start on the new 1000 room Omni Convention Center hotel pretty soon. But ok.

It’s sad Canal St. was once known for its stores and shopping. Now, it’s trash. It could be so much better and returned to its glory. But the city would rather have cell phone shops, drug stores, a massage parlor and other low end garbage as the entrance to the FQ.

You trust anyone in NOLA with that sort of money? City Hall is itching to get fat envelopes handed out from contracts. Again, nice try.

Understood. But the city could still clean up the garbage stores on Canal Street and maybe the dunks, druggies and bums would move along. It’s a nasty street to drive down.
Posted on 3/6/26 at 9:55 pm to Dixie2023
I don’t think Saks will exist in 2 yrs
Posted on 3/6/26 at 10:23 pm to Optimism
Good bye Saks. Hello Big Lots!!

This for you nostalgia nerds like me who grew up as these places were closing.
