How to Unlock Shops at Harv's Island Plaza in Animal Crossing: New Horizons
Unlocking the Able Sisters' Shop
Once The Roost is in place, Harriet may approach asking to expand further by adding an clothing boutique. She provides the Blueprint to develop the space.
Building the Able Sister's Shop
As with the previous constructions, craft the blueprint and lay panels on the remaining empty lot space to build out the stylish Able Sister's fashion emporium complete with changing rooms.
Continuing Expansions
As you progress further in the main game by funding more of Tom Nook's infrastructure projects, inviting more villagers, and fulfilling tasks, additional Blueprints will unlock for shops like Nook's Cranny and the campground.
Using the Shops
Now that the developments are complete on Harv's island, feel free to visit the stores daily like you would back home. Some key details:
- The Roost Brewster will serve coffee and takeout, with rewards for loyalty
- Able Sister's will carry full clothing catalog and custom designs
- Nook's Cranny offers expanded seasonal item selection
- Campground tents invite any amiibo cards scanned
Earning Harv's Posters
As thanks for your help developing Photopia, Harriet will reward you with photo session mementos - Harv's Posters. Display them with pride!
Using Photopia
Now that the island is developed, recreate any room setting using the Pro Camera app. Invite any villagers or friends over to pose and snap pictures together across all seasons.
Hosting Special Events
Get creative hosting themed events in Photopia like fashion shows, art exhibits, flower arranging contests using items from the shops as decor and prizes.
Earning Extra Bells
Since Harv's island offers expanded goods, turn a profit by shopping the Daily Selection then returning home to your island Nook's Cranny to resell high demand items for markups of 10,000+ Animal Crossing Bells each.
Selling Turnips
Since Nook's Cranny on Harv's island functions independently from your island, travel there on rare spike Sundays to purchase turnips that won't rot if you time travel back home before selling.
Photographing Your Friends
Swap best friend codes with others to invite them over Photopia for collaborative photo shoots across different themes and seasons for your custom portfolio.
Sharing Designs
Using the design portal at Able Sisters in Photopia, visit to upload and download custom designs, clothing patterns and QR codes directly from the kiosk.
Earning Nook Miles
Complete the Harv's Handy Harold Nook Miles achievement list across various activities on the island like shopping, photographing friends, and using emotes for more bonus Miles.
Showcasing Your Island
Recreate miniature sets or dioramas of areas from your home island like the plaza, orchards or special buildings to give tours for friends visiting Photopia.
Unwinding at The Roost
Take a break any time visiting Harv's and relax at Brewster's cafe enjoying a hot cup of coffee or tea while listening to soothing K.K. music.
