Shakespeare & Co. Coming to Downtown Via Brookfield Place

Shakespeare & Co. will open a new store at Brookfield Place in Lower Manhattan as part of its ongoing expansion plans. The planned opening date for the 2,300-square-foot bookstore is January 2020.

At present, the independent bookseller operates on the Upper East and Upper West Sides. A Philadelphia store is slated to open this summer, to be followed by a Greenwich Village location later this year.

“Shakespeare & Co. is a perfect fit for Brookfield Place,” said Michael Goldban, SVP, retail leasing at Brookfield Properties. “We love their unique blend of programming and offerings, and anticipate their store will quickly become a favorite here—especially with anticipated author events both in their store and in our beautiful Winter Garden.”

At Shakespeare & Co., CEO Dane Neller said, “We look forward to serving the Brookfield customer, which represents a vibrant mix of local residents, office tenants and tourists.”
