For 94 years, 1201 Canal Street was home to the Krauss Department Store, once the largest department store in the South. Krauss opened for business on April 13, 1903, and expanded over the years to include more than 300,000 square feet on six levels covering two city blocks. From the long Formica lunch counter with the round red stools, to the madams and ladies of Storyville who once shopped within the store, the Krauss building enjoys a unique and storied place in New Orleans history. Ready for occupancy in September 2008, this historic building has been transformed through extensive redevelopment to be the new home of 1201 Canal Condominiums, an upscale community of 233 luxury residences and over 25,000 square feet of street-front retail.
