Hermès, Palm Beach
•
PALM BEACH, FL
Pictured above is the Worth Avenue Hermès store located in the center of the historic Palm Beach shopping district. At the request of Hermès of Paris and Tiffany & Co., Metropolitan was contracted to develop a corner parcel for the development of the prestigious retailers.
Hiring local architects and consultants, Metropolitan was able to completely build facilities for both retailers in less than eight months from conception to final store opening. The process included the difficult task of review and approval of the Palm Beach Historical Commission and building under the restriction of limited construction hours before the winter shopping season.
