Neiman Marcus Downtown Dallas to Stay Open—At Least Through 2025

3 Min Read

Neiman Marcus, the iconic flagship store that has been part of Dallas for more than a century, has been granted an extension. Originally set to close on Monday, March 31, 2025, the store will remain open temporarily after weeks of talks with its parent company. Saks Global will work in partnership with the City of Dallas on potential future developments for the 2025 holiday season.

Founded in 1907, Neiman Marcus has been an integral part of Dallas culture for more than a century. The store’s legacy is unmistakable, thanks to its trademark strawberry butter popovers, which have been served to some of the city’s most notable personalities. The decision to extend its operations gives Dallas city officials and Saks more time to update the area while maintaining its historical significance.

Since Neiman Marcus was acquired by Saks for $2.7 billion in 2024, speculation about its potential closure has been widespread. Various ideas have been proposed, including converting the location into a luxury shopping mall, hosting curated art exhibitions, or transforming it into a fashion and events hub. During the evaluation phase, two iconic features of the store—the Zodiac Room and Neiman’s Bridal Salon—will remain open.

Saks Global CEO Marc Metrick praised the city’s commitment to Neiman Marcus, saying it aligned with Saks Global’s mission to rethink luxury retail. City officials, including City Manager Kimberly Bizor Tolbert, agreed, stating they were excited about the opportunity to reshape Downtown Dallas while also maintaining a piece of its past.

In the background, a land dispute complicated matters. The store’s ground lease is shared among multiple property owners, complicating negotiations, and the City of Dallas recently resolved a critical piece of that puzzle. The Slaughter family, who owned a portion of the land, agreed to donate their stake, allowing the store to continue operating while discussions move forward.

The short-term agreement also allows the city to explore the idea of positioning Downtown Dallas as a global hub for fashion. Ideas like a fashion design and manufacturing incubator could potentially breathe new life into the city’s economy. For now, employees and patrons of the store can rest easy knowing that the doors will stay open, at least through the end of 2025.

While Saks Global continues its evaluation of the Downtown location, plans are also underway for renovations at the nearby NorthPark store. The company sees an opportunity to differentiate the two stores and cater to varying customer needs in the Dallas area. Both the Zodiac Room and the Bridal Salon will remain operational throughout this transition period.
