IL NEW STORE FOR SIXTH AVE-
Z. d. Kesner Acquires the Former
Enrich Store Property. Building
10 Be Remoda1ed me An Addtdosl
Erected. New Store to Open in tbs
Fall

Speculation and rumoT eonoerninsi
the disposition Of the former Enrich
Brothers store property, New York
City, were set at rest on Wednesday
by the announcement that J. L. Kes-
ner, Of Chicago, had secured the long
time lease Of the land and buildings
and would open a new store ~ soon
a. the buildings could be remodel~d
and an addition built at the FIND st
corner. This work will be rushed tei
completion sometime in the fall.
This announcement was received
with great interest in retail circles.
The location on Sixth Ave, extending
from Sind to 9Srd ST., Is one OF the
choicest spots for retail business In
ali New York. II was inevitable that
4 new store would be opened there
and there has been much competition
to secure the property.
Mr.. J.. L. Kesner Is one of the beat
known and popular men in American
retailing, His business history reads
like that of n Of Horado Ayers
heroes and could serve as q model
and inspiration for any boy beginning
the life struggle. His experience in.
retailing began rs a cash-boy in the
Fair-one of the great department
stores of Chicaxowith which store
he was connected for thirty-two
years, passing through every depArt1
ment and grade up to the position OF
general manager. This position he
held for fifteen years. resagning II a
year ago because he had become one
of the largest individual ownerS OF
downtown real estate in Chicago, and
his property demanded close personal,
attention.
1t seems to be d%ifncuft, howsverA
Tor a successful retail merchant to-
keep out OF the busin ess. Mr.. Kes-
ner says that he has always had his
aye on New York city az = retail,
osnter. ut 10 the greatest city in
the world" he said, and the richest
in opportunity for the alert man who,
Ia willing and able 10 do HE own
thinking and his own hard work.
Even Chicago. my swn home city
must stand second to New York in
that respect" So whom Mr.. Kssner
heard of the closing OF the Enrich
store he took the next train TO New
York to see what could be one with
the site and buildings. He found
many others In the feld. impsiled by
similar motives-but the lease II hiA
and the work of orsanisinf q new
store u already under way.
