In New York, a Glitzy New Mall Devotes a Floor to Online Retailers

Developers of a glitzy new Manhattan shopping center think they have found a way to cash in on the surge in e-commerce: stock a floor with companies that began as online-only retailers.

That is the grand experiment going on at Hudson Yards, a massive new commercial and residential development of 18 million square feet on the West Side. The mall there is scheduled to open on March 15, along with a 5-acre landscaped plaza and a monument called Vessel that is designed for visitors to hike its 2,500 steps.
