  1. Macy's is headed the way of Sears and JCPenney.....

  2. Once upon a time there were entire bunch of department stores. Wanamaker's, Gimbel's,Lit Brothers, Strawbridges. All dead now. The councilman is really trying to spin this... You tried to give us the same speech about the Fashion District. And the same speech about the Sixers arena. Center City Philadelphia already has excess Office space. And I don't see anyone banging down the doors to live next to City Hall.

  3.  @MotocrossGuru-zf8pk  Yes, department stores and malls both seem to be on death's door. Most of the area malls are dead or dying. And I can't remember the last time I went to Macy's for anything? I kind of miss being able to go to places like Sears.

  4.  @x-men69-96  Macy's has a nationwide closing of stores. This is not related to that incident or theft in general.

  5.  @girleyreds11-11  that's going to fill the space. And there's already an excess of offices. And you're limited due to its historic preservation designation. You don't have a lot of options. And you're kind of hemmed in location wise.

  6.  @georgeawestjr.9087  I thought you were going to say Kohl's? They have store closings as well.

  7.  @davidserlin8097  Yes, Market Street used to have several department stores. After Wanamaker's folded; It became Lord & Taylor. Then Macy's.

  9. @michaelbruno1330  I believe the term is, convenience? Why pay for the travel or parking?

  10. @gobbletegook  problem is, that generation of shopper is going away. 🛒 This is not just a downtown problem. It's a suburban Mall problem. Have you noticed that many of them are basically dead malls now? The Macy's in Exton square is closing. Places like Neshaminy, Granite Run, Franklin Mills are empty.

  11.  @Aquariangirl126  well now the Sixers are going to get their hands on the property.

  14.  @philly440  it's not going to be retail space. And there's already excess office space. So what magical use would you have?

  15.  @nancynguyen9318  I was shocked to hear there's only eight Sears stores left in America.
