Defunt department stores in your city!!

Here in Detroit we quite a lot some one these stores are bankrupt nationwide not just in Michigan

Jacobson's- It was a upscale retailer which was around 100 years old
Crowley's- Mid range Detroit dept. store
Montgomery Ward- Well it was a 130 year old so that's long enough
Hudson's- renamed by Marshall Field's, but still not HUDSON'S
Woolworths- Whatever happened to them, I think there are some in Australia and the UK

Well the replacements of these stores are:
Jacobson's- 2 store were bought by Von Maur, 1 by Art Van, 1 by CVS, 1 by a private owner and 1 in Birmingham slated for office space!

Crowley's- filled with Value City stores

Montgomery Wards- Many of them are still vacant, SAD!!

Hudson's- All stores except the Detroit downtown store we changed to Marshall Field's

Woolworths- God knows it's an old company!!>
