Carhartt is making its move into Manhattan.

The Dearborn, Mich.-based workwear company is opening its first New York City store on Thursday in the Flatiron District — a 5,000-square-foot unit at 936 Broadway, on the corner of 22 nd Street.

The location was one of several that the company explored when searching for a spot in the city. It had considered the Empire State Building, but opted for the Flatiron area in order to be more accessible to the local community, said Chad Cornstubble, senior vice president of direct-to-consumer for Carhartt.

“We’re very data-oriented in how we choose our stores and we felt this location was most relevant to our customers,” he said.

The store will mark the 57 th unit for Carhartt, which is on track to raise that number to around 100 by 2030.
