Hi Jim 

is Kauffman's,  still around ?  

If not , is the store building still there ?  

What street is it on ? What is the intersection ? 

 

Thanks in Advance 

 

The building is located on Smithfield Street between Forbes and Fifth Avenues.  Kaufmann’s was bought by Macy’s and in 2006 they changed the name of all of the Kaufmann's stores to Macy’s.  Then in 2015, Macy’s closed the downtown store.  The building was sold and remodeled and converted into a hotel which just opened last month under the name EVEN Hotel.
