Triangle Town Center in Raleigh scored a major coup when Saks Fifth Avenue opened its first North Carolina store at the mall in September 2004, beating out Charlotte, where the chain continues to search for a suitable location.

The two-level, 80,000 square foot store is the smallest anchor in the mall, but is also the most upscale. It is designed in Saks latest prototype, which is simultaneously more contemporary in department layout and more traditional in exterior appearance. A very similar store to this design opened in Richmond, Virginia a year before the Raleigh location.
