Nike House of Innovation NYC

With a name like “House of Innovation 000,” Nike NYC is a call to an origin, a center point for what a flagship store can be for its city. The sheer size of the building proves its power: The six stories (including a below-street-level floor) cover more than 68,000 square feet on the corner of Fifth Avenue and 52nd Street. Inside, the promise of living retail comes to life. On each floor, groundbreaking features offer spaces and experiences that are both personal and responsive. Throughout, consumers can enjoy services that are deeply customizable and effortlessly smart and seamless. The store recalls the immersion that many locals remember from their first visit to New York’s original Niketown when it opened its doors more than 20 years ago, leading to, as Nike Direct President Heidi O’Neill calls it, an “only-here” Nike experience.
