Burlington Mall -

Lord and Taylor – A reader writes  that there is a “2nd floor ‘lounge’ located by the intimates section.  It’s a large, carpeted room with a restroom beyond.  There are regular upholstered chairs that aren’t particularly comfortable, but at least it’s a private space and you aren’t in a bathroom stall.  It’s a large enough room to bring in the stroller, and I think I recall a table or shelf of some sort.”
