Urban Outfitters sells a wide range of brands from Levi’s to Jeffrey Campbell. The company is known for its hip urban style clothing that often pushes the limit.
Urban Outfitters is also rumored to be looking at the old Bank of America building on Ridgewood Avenue as the possible sight for a new store.
Funk as Puck?
I think the store will do well there. There is no shortage of teenyboppers wandering around the CBD spending their parents’ money. And they love them some trendy clothes.
