John Wanamaker, New York

The John Wanamaker store was built
in 1906 as an annex to the old A.T.
Stewart store to the north which Wana-
maker had acquired.

A view of the Wanamaker store from Astor Place re-
veals the Renaissance palazzo-like design of the store
by architect Daniel Burnham, who was also responsible
for the Philadelphia Wanamaker store.

"Let those who follow me continue to
build with the plumb of honor, the
level of truth, and the square of integrity,
education, courtesy and mutuality."

Dey Brothers, Syracuse, New York

Dey Brothers built a large store on the corner of

South Salina and Jefferson Streets in 1904

As business expanded, the store occupied adjacent

buildings along South Salina and Jefferson as well.

In 1913, a taller addition extended the store to

Warren Street

In the late 1960s, the store remodeled and covered its

exterior in aluminum panels for a "modern" look.
