I'm just wondering. Someone in my office had said that but I don't think its very true.

If Fortunoff's is done, than LT is done and you know what that means...

SHOE SALE!

Lord and Taylor bought out Fortunoffs last year, and I believe they are now selling it. They are 'technically' the same company, but Lord and Taylor is not closing from what I know, they are just looking to sell Fortunoffs because it is not profitable

They were owned by the same private equity firm but now that firm is selling foruntoffs....they were suppose to inter-connect both stores some how but that will no longer be happening as Fortunoffs is most likely closing soon since they have no buyers.
