mg Magazine captured the essence of what we aim to create at The Travel Agency—a sophisticated, immersive experience that blends seamlessly with the iconic luxury of Midtown Manhattan. We appreciate your recognition of our team’s efforts, from the architectural vision brought to life by Leong Leong to our commitment to curating an inclusive and inviting space for all.

“The 40-year-old female shopper is a really strong demographic, and that demographic is just emerging in New York,” Paul Yau said, adding that the stores were designed with that kind of new shopper in mind. “When people came into our store, they knew immediately it wasn’t an illicit store.” Excited to share The Travel Agency's journey into the luxury cannabis market on Fifth Avenue, as featured in CNBC. We’re committed to offering a premium, community-focused experience that reflects our values and dedication to quality.

“…the space designed by architecture firm Leong Leong belongs in the same family as New York City’s retail temples — the Khaites, Kith’s, and Aesops of the world that demonstrate how good retail is about a lot more than a transaction.” — Fast Company Episode 3, Part 2 of Luxury Meets…Retail Leaders is now live!

"The space [The Travel Agency], designed by the architecture firm Leong Leong , belongs in the same family as New York City’s retail temples—the KHAITEs, KITHs, and Aesops of the world that demonstrate how good retail is about a lot more than a transaction."
