Century-Old Hurwitz Mintz Furniture Announces Closure and Major Sales Event

Hurwitz Mintz Furniture, a family-owned retailer founded in 1923, is closing its New Orleans location at 1751 Airline Drive after more than 100 years of operation. The company is holding a huge sale offering discounts of up to 70% on all items, including household goods and mattresses. A final closing date has not been announced, but the store remains open until its remaining inventory is sold.

The store has been a long-time presence in the community, having been rebuilt after it was impacted by Hurricane Katrina. The closure follows the death of Mitchell Lloyd Mintz, the third-generation owner. The company expressed gratitude to the New Orleans community and its employees during the transition.
