The oldest portion of Dayton's enormous store, on
the southwest corner of Nicollet and Seventh Street.
The original Radisson hotel can be seen to the
right of the store.

The store was expanded along Eighth Street in the
1930s and again in the 1950s, resulting in a massive,
twelve story block, crowned by the renowned
Sky Room restaurant.

The newer block presented an imposing face
on Nicollet Avenue.

The newer block closed a vista along Lasalle Avenue.
It began as a two-story parking garage which
eventually formed a base for the tall store building.
