Those shopping at Saks Fifth Avenue, in Manhattan, New York, may also be able to do a bit of gambling in the future if plans for a casino development prove successful.

Hudson's Bay Company, owner of the retail store, is striving to get one of three gambling licenses available in New York City and if granted plans to use three store floors for a casino on top of the flagship location, according to a New York Times report.

"It will be comparable to the aesthetics and luxury detailing of the Saks Fifth Avenue store," Trenesa Danuser, a spokeswoman for Hudson's Bay, told the news outlet.
