The concept store will open in June 2017 in the Seaport District. The storied Milan retailer 10 Corso Como is coming to New York. In an agreement with real estate group The Howard Hughes Corporation, the store founded by Carla Sozzani will open a unit in the Seaport District in June 2017. Covering about 13,000 square feet and designed by American artist Kris Ruhs, this will be the retailer's only U.S. location. Financial terms of the arrangement were not disclosed.
