A CODE OF IT'S OWN

for some reason, i don't actually find this too interesting - but i thought you might. saks fifth avenue is revamping it's shoe floor. construction started today, and is scheduled to end in august when the brand new department will be debuted. customers will have over 8,500 square feet of space to roam when trying shoes on. But that's not even the interesting number: 10022-SHOE is. that is the zip code number that the united states post office has assigned to the floor. honestly, that sounds cool. but it begs the question: why?
