ʻO Strawbridge's -ʻO ka hope loa o ke Keʻenaʻo Philadelphia Department e mālama ana iā Kuleana
I koʻu wā e ulu ana i ka'āina Philadelphia, ua hoʻomaka kekahi o koʻu mau punahele o ka makahiki me ka mahalo a hōʻoia i nā lāʻahaʻaina Kalikimaka me nā makahiki hou. ʻO ka Gethbel Day Daygiving Day he mea nuiʻole a nui paha e like me ke kiʻi i New York City i kākoʻoʻia e ka mea hoʻokūkū Gimbels,ʻo Macy, akā,ʻo kā mākou papahele a makemake mākou ia. Lawe mau koʻuʻohana i kekahi lā e hele i ke kūlanakauhale, kūʻai aʻike i nā hōʻike Kalikiano ma nā hale kūʻai nui o ke kūlanakauhale: Gimbel's, Brothers Brothers, Strawbridge, Clothier a me John Wanamaker.
He koikoi nuiʻo Gimbel's aʻo kā Santa kā "ʻoiaʻiʻo"ʻo Santa, no ka mea uaʻike mākou iā ia i loko o ka papa. Ua loaʻa iā The Brothers Enchanted Colonial Village he mau hanana nui he 18 like me ka Toymaker, ka Bakery, ka mea hana, a me nā mea'ē aʻe. ʻO Strawbridge aʻo Clothier ka hale kūʻai nani loa a he mau hoa aloha kēlā. Loaʻa iā lākou ka Hōʻike Hōʻikeʻike No Ka Hōʻailona Mele no kaʻikeʻana i kēlā me kēia makahiki,ʻoiaiʻaʻole naʻe i loli.
I ka makahiki 1977, ua weheʻia ke kiʻi ma Market East a hoʻomaka nā mea a pau e loli no nā hale kūʻaiʻoihana nui o ke kūlanakauhale ma kahi o ke kūlanakauhale i hoʻokipa aku i kāna mall mua. Ua hoʻopiʻiʻia nā Brother Brothers no ka banekorupa a ua liʻuliʻu i ka pauʻana o kāna mau mea kūʻai. ʻO Gimbel's, i weheʻia i ka makahiki 1894, ua neʻeʻia mai ka hale kūʻai kū kaʻawale i ka 8 a me ka Market i loko o ka'ahamele, akā ma ka makahiki 1986 ua hele aku lākou i kahiʻoihana, a ua hoʻololiʻia e ka K-Mart.
Ua weheʻiaʻo Wanamaker i ka makahiki 1876 aʻo ia ka hale kūʻai mua ma Philadelphia aʻo kekahi o nā mea mua, ināʻaʻole ka hale kūʻai mua ma United States.
Uaʻikeʻiaʻo ia no kona kūlana kūpono a no ka hoʻomaʻemaʻeʻana i ka nui o nāʻoihana kūʻai kūʻai maʻAmelika. I ka makahiki 1978, ma hope o ka halaʻana o nā makahiki he nuiʻana o ka kūʻai, kūʻai akula kaʻohanaʻohana Wanamaker i nā hale kūʻai i ka hale kūʻaiʻo Carter Hawley Hale Stores ma Los Angeles, California. I ka makahiki 1986, kūʻaiʻo Carter Hawley Hale i nā kumukūʻai i ka mea kālepa waiwaiʻo Detroit.
ʻO Alfred Taubman ka mea i kūʻai lilo aku iā lākou i ka makahiki 1995 a me ka hale kūʻaiʻo Mei. Ua lilo ke kūlanakauhaleʻo Wanamaker i Haku & Taylor a ua hala kekahi inoa nui o ka hale waihona hale. (E waiho mau ana ka Hōʻike Hōʻikeʻike Noeliko.)
ʻO ka hopena hope loa i ka papahana mālama hale kūʻai nui o Philadelphia i ka hopena o Iulai 2005 i ka wā i hoʻolaha aiʻo Federated Department Stores, Inc. e hōʻoki ana i ka inoa o Strawbridge e like me keʻano o ka hui pū me nā mahina kūʻai o Mei. I kekahi manawa i ka makahiki 2006, e lilo ka hale kūʻaiʻo Market Street Strawbridge i Macy a me nā hale kūʻai o ka hale i kahi i noho aiʻo Macy me Strawbridge, e paniʻia nā waiwai o Strawbridge.
Hoʻomaka muaʻo Justus C. Strawbridge i ka hale kūʻai ma Philadelphia i ka makahiki 1861 a laila hui pū me Isaac H. Clothier i ka makahiki 1868. No nā makahiki he 128 i hala aʻe,ʻo Strawbridge lāuaʻo Clothier kaʻohana a he huiʻoihana iʻikeʻia no kona pilina nui me kona poʻe limahana a me nā mea kūʻai. ʻO kahi kahi aʻu i noi mua ai no kahiʻoihana ma hope o ke pukaʻana mai ke kulanui mai ka makahiki 1976.
He paʻakikī nā makahiki 1980 no Strawbridge a me Clothier i lilo i kumu no ka hoʻokipa hōʻeuʻeuʻana i hoʻonohonohoʻia e kahi o nāʻohana pono'ī o kaʻohana i makemakeʻoleʻia e ka kūʻaiʻana o ka hale kūʻai a me ka hopena o ka hopena.
I ka hopena ma ka makahiki 1996, ua'āpono ka papa alakaʻi, he hapa nui o nā lālā o kaʻohana Strawbridge, eʻae i kā lākou mau waiwai i ka Hui Mei. Ua kapa inoaʻo ka Mei i nā hale kūʻai e like me Strawbridge's -ʻo ia ka mea i kapaʻia ka poʻe kūʻai i nā hale kūʻai. Ua hana pinepine wau i kaʻu wahine me ka wahine i ka manawa e make ai mākou, aia hoʻokahi wale nō pēke, kahiʻinikua līlū a hoʻokahi hale waiho wale i koe. ʻO nā hui a me nā mea kūʻai kekahi hapa o ko kākou ola i kēia mau lā, akā, he mea kaumaha keʻike i nā inoa kahiko o ko kākou'ōpio. ʻO ka mea pōʻino,ʻaʻohe mau hōʻailona e pau ke kau i kēia manawa koke.
ʻO Strawbridge's -ʻO ka hope loa o ke Keʻena Nuiʻo Philadelphia Department Stores to Close I koʻu wā e ulu ana ma ka Philadelphia, ua hoʻomaka kekahi o koʻu mau manawa punahele o ka makahiki me ka hoʻomaikaʻi hoʻomaikaʻi a mālamaʻia i nā lāʻahaʻaina Kalikimaka a me nā makahiki hou.
ʻO ka Gethbel Day Daygiving Day he mea nuiʻole a nui paha e like me ke kiʻi i New York City i kākoʻoʻia e ka mea hoʻokūkū Gimbels,ʻo Macy, akā,ʻo kā mākou papahele a makemake mākou ia. Lawe mau koʻuʻohana i kekahi lā e hele i ke kūlanakauhale, kūʻai aʻike i nā hōʻike Kalikiano ma nā hale kūʻai nui o ke kūlanakauhale: Gimbel's, Brothers Brothers, Strawbridge, Clothier a me John Wanamaker.
He koikoi nuiʻo Gimbel's aʻo kā Santa kā "ʻoiaʻiʻo"ʻo Santa, no ka mea uaʻike mākou iā ia i loko o ka papa. Ua loaʻa iā The Brothers Enchanted Colonial Village he mau hanana nui he 18 like me ka Toymaker, ka Bakery, ka mea hana, a me nā mea'ē aʻe. ʻO Strawbridge aʻo Clothier ka hale kūʻai nani loa a he mau hoa aloha kēlā. Loaʻa iā lākou ka Hōʻike Hōʻikeʻike No Ka Hōʻailona Mele no kaʻikeʻana i kēlā me kēia makahiki,ʻoiaiʻaʻole naʻe i loli.
I ka makahiki 1977, ua weheʻia ke kiʻi ma Market East a hoʻomaka nā mea a pau e loli no nā hale kūʻaiʻoihana nui o ke kūlanakauhale ma kahi o ke kūlanakauhale i hoʻokipa aku i kāna mall mua. Ua hoʻopiʻiʻia nā Brother Brothers no ka banekorupa a ua liʻuliʻu i ka pauʻana o kāna mau mea kūʻai. ʻO Gimbel's, i weheʻia i ka makahiki 1894, ua neʻeʻia mai ka hale kūʻai kū kaʻawale i ka 8 a me ka Market i loko o ka'ahamele, akā ma ka makahiki 1986 ua hele aku lākou i kahiʻoihana, a ua hoʻololiʻia e ka K-Mart.
Ua weheʻiaʻo Wanamaker i ka makahiki 1876 aʻo ia ka hale kūʻai mua ma Philadelphia aʻo kekahi o nā mea mua, ināʻaʻole ka hale kūʻai mua ma United States. Uaʻikeʻiaʻo ia no kona kūlana kūpono a no ka hoʻomaʻemaʻeʻana i ka nui o nāʻoihana kūʻai kūʻai maʻAmelika. I ka makahiki 1978, ma hope o ka halaʻana o nā makahiki he nuiʻana o ka kūʻai, kūʻai akula kaʻohanaʻohana Wanamaker i nā hale kūʻai i ka hale kūʻaiʻo Carter Hawley Hale Stores ma Los Angeles, California. I ka makahiki 1986, kūʻai akulaʻo Carter Hawley Hale i nā hale kūʻai i ka mea kālepa waiwai waiwaiʻo Detroit A. Alfred Taubman nāna i kūʻai aku iā lākou i ka makahiki 1995 i ka Meiʻo Mei. Ua lilo ke kūlanakauhaleʻo Wanamaker i Haku & Taylor a ua hala kekahi inoa nui o ka hale waihona hale. (E waiho mau ana ka Hōʻike Hōʻikeʻike Noeliko.)
ʻO ka hopena hope loa i ka papahana mālama hale kūʻai nui o Philadelphia i ka hopena o Iulai 2005 i ka wā i hoʻolaha aiʻo Federated Department Stores, Inc. e hōʻoki ana i ka inoa o Strawbridge e like me keʻano o ka hui pū me nā mahina kūʻai o Mei. I kekahi manawa i ka makahiki 2006, e lilo ka hale kūʻaiʻo Market Street Strawbridge i Macy a me nā hale kūʻai o ka hale i kahi i noho aiʻo Macy me Strawbridge, e paniʻia nā waiwai o Strawbridge.
Hoʻomaka muaʻo Justus C. Strawbridge i kekahi hale kūʻai ma Philadelphia i ka makahiki 1861 a laila hui pū me Isaac H. Clothier i ka makahiki 1868. No nā makahiki he 128 i hala aʻe, ua nohoʻo Strawbridge a me Clothier heʻohana a he huiʻoihana iʻikeʻia no kona pilina nui me kona poʻe limahana a me nā mea kūʻai. ʻO kahi kahi aʻu i noi mua ai no kahiʻoihana ma hope o ke pukaʻana mai ke kulanui mai ka makahiki 1976.
He paʻakikī nā makahiki 1980 no Strawbridge a me Clothier i lilo i kumu no ka hoʻokipa hōʻeuʻeuʻana i hoʻonohonohoʻia e kahi o nāʻohana pono'ī o kaʻohana i makemakeʻoleʻia e ka kūʻaiʻana o ka hale kūʻai a me ka hopena o ka hopena. I ka hopena, i ka makahiki 1996, ua hoʻonohonoho ka papa hoʻonohonoho, ka hapanui o nā lālā o kaʻohana Strawbridge, e kūʻai aku i kā lākou mau waiwai i ka Hui Mei.
