Ikea NYC Popup Apartments

by Dave Pinter

Prior to the launch of the new Brooklyn location of Ikea, the retailer is dropping popup apartments at various locations around the city. Today, PSFK stopped by the one setup in Union Square. On hand were lots of Ikea associates talking about the opening and handing out grand opening sale flyer’s. If you can’t make it to Union Square today, the apartment will move to the Brooklyn Public Library on June 13 and Cadman Plaza on June 15.

Ikea Brooklyn will open in Red Hook at 9am on June 18th. More coverage here at Racked.
