Miracle Mile (Manhasset)

The Miracle Mile is a prominent shopping district in Manhasset in Nassau County, on the North Shore of Long Island, in New York, United States.

[2][3] It was named the Miracle Mile in reference to the Los Angeles neighborhood, and inspired by its rapid development after decades of depression and war, and the difficulty in developing a commercial corridor in a primarily residential area.

[1] The Miracle Mile has been a mainstay in suburban shopping and for many years featured a Lord & Taylor, often referred to as the first branch store in America.

In addition to Lord & Taylor, Manhasset has supported branches of some of the most well known stores in New York over the years – including B. Altman & Co., Bonwit Teller, Abraham & Straus (and subsequently Macy's), Best & Co., Arnold Constable, Franklin Simon & Co., Peck & Peck, H&M, W. & J. Sloane and a J.J.

[1] On August 27, 2020, it was announced that Lord & Taylor would be closing all remaining stores – including its flagship Miracle Mile location.
