Garage to open largest flagship store in NYC

Canadian fashion retailer Garage is expanding its U.S. retail footprint starting with plans to open its largest flagship store to date in New York City’s Flatiron District. 

Scheduled to open in spring 2027, the more than 9,500-square-foot flagship will occupy a multi-level corner location at Fifth Avenue and East 21st Street.

The flagship will blend the historic architecture of the Flatiron neighborhood—including soaring ceilings and industrial design elements—with Garage’s signature aesthetic. The company said the space will also function as a content creation hub. 

“We’re incredibly excited to bring Garage to the Flatiron district in New York City with our largest store to date. This flagship location represents a major milestone for the brand, allowing us to showcase our full expression of Garage in one of the world’s most dynamic retail markets,” said Romina Kolodziejska, vice-president, global real estate & store development at Groupe Dynamite Inc.

While the Montreal-born brand already operates a store in SoHo, the new flagship represents a significant upgrade to its New York presence and secures one of Manhattan’s most prominent retail addresses. 

“Expanding in New York at this scale underscores our confidence in the brand’s continued growth, and our commitment to meeting our customers where they are,” Kolodziejska added. 

In the U.S., the retailer has also grown its presence in markets including Las Vegas and Hawaii, while internationally it recently entered the UK with its first stores at Bluewater Shopping Centre and on London’s Oxford Street.

Looking ahead, Garage plans to continue rolling out larger flagship formats, with multi-level stores slated for Newbury Street in Boston and M Street in Georgetown, Washington, D.C.

Parent company Groupe Dynamite Inc. went public in November 2024. In April, it reported earnings above estimates in its fourth quarter and provided an optimistic outlook for the current fiscal year.
