OMG! What a shock! I hope they go to Times Square then! We love going to the Disney store when we go to NY. At least I know they will be there until 2010!

Re: WoD NYC is leaving 5th ave.
I'm going to imagine they would be browsing Times Square locations. There is so many tourist spots right there, the M&M's store, the Hershey store and a ton of other branded specialty conglomerates. It is definitely more "tourist laden" then any place in SoHo. I can't even imagine them moving down there. It would have to become a real destination trek for tourists, very much out of the way. The rents on 5th are obscene though. And even though we all know how expensive those Mickey shirts may seem to us, in reality, small ticket items can't bring in the same revenue as Cartier, Tiffany or Bergdorf, and therefore make the profit margin much, much smaller.

Re: WoD NYC is leaving 5th ave.
Wherever they move it, it will do well. The place is always PACKED, with scads of cash registers going full-tilt, plenty of kids racing around, and a crowd of pedi-cabs outside to ferry kids around town after they are done shopping.
At Christmas, you can barely move on the first floor, there are so many people, and when they have a big intense window display (like the recent Pirates display!), there is a huge crowd blocking the sidewalk day after day, to check it all out.
