Houston’s New Luxury Palace

The new sprawling Saks Fifth Avenue fills over 200,000 square-feet, which makes the new space 20,000 square-feet larger than its previous location. (Photo by Priscilla Dickson)

Unlike the previous location, the revamped Saks is only two floors. The massive beauty arena on the first floor is comprised of cosmetics, handbags, 10022-SHOE, Bar 12, Jewelry, and Men's (clothing, shoes accessories). (Photo by Priscilla Dickson)
