I asked A.GTLD-SERVERS.NET. It tells me:
;; ANSWER SECTION:
baldur.macysnyc.com. 2D IN A 64.63.59.41
;; AUTHORITY SECTION:
macysnyc.com. 2D IN NS BALDUR.MACYSADV.com.
macysnyc.com. 2D IN NS DNS2.MACYSADV.com.
;; ADDITIONAL SECTION:
BALDUR.MACYSADV.com. 2D IN A 209.10.179.184
DNS2.MACYSADV.com. 2D IN A 209.10.179.188
so my original answer was incorrect.
