Manage episode 328452774 series 3326386
How does one get from admiring a glass object by sculptor Joe Cariati to discussing the merits of an exquisite cashmere sweater? Well, that's easy when you spend a few minutes with Steve Cardino, a former Macy's Vice President Home and Fashion Director, who currently represents the Fifth Avenue Association Business Improvement District in its relations with merchants along the famed retail corridor.
Steve is a gifted storyteller. Whether he uses words or objects selected with great emotion, Steve's stories provide a bridge between the good old days of traditional American retail and the future of consumers' tastes and attitudes.
The best way to make him happy? Take a day trip to New York City's Fifth Avenue and indulge in what the avenue has to offer in terms of luxury retail and hospitality solutions.
