Well that's certainly conceivable because according to reports online they are planning to expand to 20-30 US stores but so far they have 3 stores in Manhattan, 1 in Paramus and 1 in San Francisco.
Yeah they seem to be expanding. Just actually heard this afternoon two new locales in the Philly area - One DT and one in KOP at the mall. Though not a formal announcement - hear that wont be till later this month so who knows but I guess with Paramus they are already in malls so could make sense and they are already advertising in the area
Havent been. I am still wanting a Century 21 more in Philly especially with Daffys going belly up
I'm not sure if SoFL has more, but I'd be more inclined to say it does too myself just because of it's destination for tourist.
However, I know you don't believe that any one district in Miami can go toe to toe with the Magnificent Mile, do you?
The thread asked what are the most upscale. It didn't necessarily ask which one was the largest. In terms of upscale offerings, I'm sure Worth Ave can go toe-to-toe with Mag Mile.
Seattle has a Zara planed for Westlake Center when they remodel it so it will be the high fashion off price with Nordstrom Rack and Zara as anchors. Pacific Place Is the high end With Barneys and Nordstrom as Anchors. And Uniqlo is looking for space also in Seattle but dont know who they are. Im more excited about the new Zaras at 31,000 square ft it will be on of the largest in the U.S. I would consider Seattle tier 2 or 3 for its downtown . Not for quality but for quanity The only upscale department stores downtown are Macys and Nordstrom and a Smaller Barneys no Saks or Bloomingdales downtown. Even though the Nordstrom is the largest in the chain and the flagship for the company I would think to be tier 1 or 2 a city would have to represent all the high end department stores. Seattle is very diverse with lots of retail Downtown A mix of High end and Middle ground retail .
Im definitely inclined to say the Miami Metro is higher overall as far as the concentration of high end retailers tho, only this is about specific districts.

Well, Worth Ave is very nice and extremely upscale, but if I recall correctly the retail strip there is only 3-blocks long, on the other hand the link below counts 200+ stores on the Mag Mile:

But it's 200+ of regular anchors mixed-in with upscale anchors. It's not 200+ of non-stop upscale. It's just a really large shopping district with some very upscale/exclusive stores mixed-in.
Paramus & Hackensack, NJ (suburbs of NYC) hands down! 5 major malls + bunch of off-highway stores in two small towns. Makes top annual in retail despite being closed on Sundays.
Las Vegas is way up there. The strip is in fact a continuous shopping district with various interior malls along the way to get inside. Every fancy brand. A Ferrari dealer. Virtually any specialty shop you can think of. Well over a thousand all together. Certainly larger, and richer, than Beverly HIlls or similar.

We do all understand that Uniqlo is a Japanese Gap, right? It's hardly "upscale," so I am not sure why we are going on about it here. I like it, but the zippers on jackets and hoodies are all on the wrong side, which is a deal-breaker for me.

Meh, I think it looks better than the Gap. I also like how much emphasis they put in trying to apply different technologies to their clothing.
Like, you know, Lawson is just a Japanese 7-11, but it's just so much more awesome.
