PITTSBURGH —
Larrimor’s, a longtime staple in downtown Pittsburgh, is closing its doors for good.
The family-owned business opened in 1939 and has been outfitting Pittsburghers in designer clothing for nearly 90 years. It’s located on Fifth Avenue.
“It is a difficult business to be in, and we don’t see the future in it, so we’re going out of business,” said Tom Michael, president of Larrimor’s. “We are taking care of our employees, and we want to thank our customers who have been very important and made this a special 87 years.”

The store is planning to hold a going-out-of-business sale starting Nov. 4.
The closure of Larrimor’s is expected by the end of the year.
While the future of the store looked shaky, Michael said they will always cherish the past.
“Being able to take care of generations of families has been very special,” he said.
