IKEA Is Opening a Manhattan 'Planning Studio' In 2019

For city dwellers (especially for those sans cars), getting to IKEA is a project in and of itself. Even in New York, where there's a ferry to the Brooklyn location, the trip still often requires a fortitude of mental and emotional energy just to get there. Thankfully, the Swedish retailer has been testing out smaller urban stores--and the first one in the U.S. will be opening in Manhattan next year.
