Shopwatch: Colfax is now open at Westport 39

Terry Richardson just couldn’t stay away from the retail biz.

The entrepreneur is a part owner of Westport 39, a new(ish) shopping center at the corner of Pennsylvania and West 39th Street (where the vintage fantasyland Boomerang is now located, along with Chop Tops, Mash Handmade, and Kathy’s Alterations). The newest addition: Colfax, 611 West 39th Street.

Midtown boutique shoppers will remember Richardson as the owner of

Revue, a boutique further west on 39th, which closed more than a

year ago. With Colfax, Richardson is back, albeit in a backseat capacity, letting her buyers fill the space — an outdoor loading dock that’s been transformed into a sunny, enclosed marketplace — with 90 percent local merchandise.
