A Life Well Lived Gin Cocktail Recipe

We’re raising a glass to our newest store, located in New York City’s historic Flatiron district! Housed in a landmark building constructed in 1904, the store is located at 12 West 20th Street at 5th Avenue in the historic Manhattan district known for its grand department stores, lofts, and skyscrapers. The beautifully-preserved building is representative of New York’s Beaux-Arts movement, boasting original columns and adorned ceiling accents, and reflects Pottery Barn’s new store concept.
