Bergdorf Goodman, Department store on Fifth Avenue, New York City, US.
Bergdorf Goodman is a multi-story retail building on Fifth Avenue in New York City offering fashion, accessories and home goods. The facade and interiors follow the design language of the Beaux-Arts style and create an elegant frame for the sales floors in the heart of Manhattan.
Herman Bergdorf opened the business in 1899 as a small tailor shop before Edwin Goodman took over the company in 1901 and gradually expanded it. The current location on Fifth Avenue was occupied in the early 20th century and developed into a fixed address for upscale fashion.
The name combines the founder's surname and that of his successor and now represents a retail concept focused on the highest quality. Visitors walking through the rooms experience a selection of exclusive brands and personalized advice in a quiet environment.
Visitors can arrange personal shopping advice and use alteration services to adjust clothing. Access to the upper floors is provided by elevators and escalators inside the building.
On the ninth floor there is a restaurant with Lalique glass windows that filter natural light. From there guests look directly onto Central Park while enjoying American and European cuisine.
