The store's design features gorgeous chandeliers that bask the space in light and clean, streamlined fixtures are merchandised to create a more boutique experience.

For more than 50 years, Century 21 Department Store has operated in the off-price sector, presenting high-end and contemporary designer merchandise in beautifully designed stores that create a luxury shopping experience. In recent years, the company has experienced expanded growth with the opening of two additional stores (Philadelphia and Green Acres) and an additional opening planned for Fall 2016 in Sawgrass Mills in Florida. Additionally, Century 21 Department Store just concluded a pop-up venture in Santa Monica, California in partnership with WithMe, the industry leaders in hi-tech, immersion retail experiences.

Furthermore, additional growth has been demonstrated with the launch and expansion of their E-Commerce platform in late 2015 and the recent launch of the retailer's first credit card this October in partnership with Alliance Data Systems. The partnership features the development of a private label credit card and expanded value proposition that puts the customer experience first, deepening engagement through customized rewards and benefits designed to drive brand loyalty. A key driver of the program will be accelerating the rewards earned through the existing multi-tender C21STATUS rewards program, in which customers are rewarded with exclusive benefits.

The City Point location will open to the public on October 11, 2016 at noon and will be located at 445 Albee Square West (at Futlon St.) Brooklyn, NY 11201.
