In an article for Princeton Magazine titled Princeton’s Fondly Remembered Establishments (Winter 2024), Anne Levin recollects about “Landau, the ‘Ivy Style’ woolen shop that closed in 2021 after 66 years on Nassau Street.”
The article also mentions “The English Shop, The Prep Shop, and Langrock on Nassau Street sold preppy men’s clothing and were popular with University students. The latter became part of the Princeton University store on University Place in 1985, operating out of a small section on the second floor for 10 years.”
“As a prime location between Philadelphia and New York City, Princeton — despite its small size — has always relied on a healthy merchant community.”
These shops have served generations of Princetonians, students and alumni.
