NEW BUILDINGS AND MAJOR ADDITIONS
DOWNTOWN DEPARTMENT STORES, 1920 TO 1960
Richard Longstreth, compiler
revised 12.1.09
This compendium offers basic data on new buildings for, and major additions to, the over 180 downtownbased department store companies in 59 cities studied for my book, The American Department Store Transformed,
1920-1960 (Yale University Press, 2010). The contents list the main plants of these businesses, including large,
separate buildings that functioned as an integral part of the stores’ retail operations and were located in the same or
contiguous blocks. More remote retail annexes, warehouses and service buildings, and parking structures are not
included. The listings are chronologically arranged by date of opening. The name of the ownership
group/department store corporation to which they belonged during the study period is indicated on the top right side
of each entry.
Numerous sources were used in compiling this material. Women’s Wear Daily and local newspapers were
especially useful. Where possible, I have included the date of closure as a department store. Site visits were made in
most cases, in which case I have included notation of whether the building still stands followed by the date of my
last visit in parentheses as the last line in an entry.
Additions and corrections are welcome. Contact me at rwl@gwu.edu.
