Ladies lunching : )
"The evolution of the Walnut Room on State Street in Chicago began when a member of our millinery department brought homemade pot pies for her clients so they would not go hungry while shopping. A few years later, her pies became the central offering of the tea room. Demand called for more space, and in the late 1890s the very first restaurant in a department store was opened. The Walnut Room, the grande dame of our seventh-floor restaurants, soon grew to 17,000 square feet, with Circassian wood imported from Russia and Austrian chandeliers contributing to its elegance and comfort." ~ Marshall Field's (Now Macy's) On State Street, Chicago

Marshall Field's Great Clock on the corner of State and Washington Streets
We were here for this year’s Macy’s Flower Show themed “Carnival.”
Photograph taken with my new Olympus OM-D EM-10 Mark II. I will use this lightweight mirrorless camera when I don’t want to lug around my bulky E-5 and second and/third lenses.
The State Street side of Marshall Field's (now Macy's State Street) was designed by the firm of Daniel Burnham and Company in 1902 and 1907. Marshall Field's is on the National Register of Historic Places #78001123, and is also a National Historic Landmark.
As I was walking into Fox Valley Mall in Aurora, Illinois one mid-summer day, I saw a big bird swoop down into a tree near the entrance of Marshall Field. Since I had my camera handy as I always do, I crept up to the tree where I saw this red tail hawk sitting maybe 12 feet up in the tree at most. He sat there quite some time, and I was able to get many pictures of him. But my point & shoot digital camera of the time was notorious for battery lag, and this was by far the best shot I had of him. That camera was only 5 megapixels and did not have a very long zoom, so this gives a good indication on how close I was able to get.
This was the last of the old freestanding suburban Field's stores (the Oak Park and Evanston ones closed in the 80s). The city of Lake Forest wouldn't let Macy's put up any big signs or change the awning colors.
yet another shot from this series (only 1...maybe 2 more, I promise!!). Atleast this time I wasn't playing in traffic...(c:
I borrowed Bernies fish-eye and went nuts. For serious...such a fun lens. If anyone out there wants to buy me one, I promise I will not deny you that pleasure.
I might get back into a few portraits in the next couple weeks....maybe. (c:

The State Street Marshall Field's / Macy's Department Store Christmas windows are a bit muted for 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic has taken most of the holiday shoppers online rather than the downtown stores
The theme for this year’s Macy’s Flower Show is “Carnival.” The display on the 9th floor allowed aerial views of the store.

Sale book for the final Field Days sale in June 2006. It's appropriate that the cover features a car full of Field's purchases, as Field's was about to drive off into the sunset thanks to Macy's brand of greed.

This landmark , originally designed for department store Schlesinger & Mayer by Louis Sullivan, awaits its own date with destiny. Five months from this day, Carson's will pull the plug, leaving this building practically empty. On its last day in early 2007, I was fortunate to film inside this building, where I spent so many Saturdays shopping with my Mom growing up.

The Evanston Marshall Field department store opened in 1929 as the chain began its spread from Chicago to the suburbs. When Marshall Field closed the store in 1987, the classic building was converted into mixed commercial space (ground level) and residential lofts (upper levels).
The Tiffany ceiling was installed in 1907. It is both the first ceiling to use favrile iridescent glass and is the largest glass mosaic of it's kind containing over 1.6 million pieces. The State Street side of Marshall Field's (now Macy's State Street) was designed by the firm of Daniel Burnham and Company in 1902 and 1907. Marshall Field's is on the National Register of Historic Places #78001123, and is also a National Historic Landmark.

In 1928, this was the first suburban branch of Marshall Field's to open.
The Lake Forest Market Square is the America’s first planned shopping center in the country (and probably the first downtown urban renewal). The Market Square is an area of 25 shops and restaurants (including an old Marshall Field's) surrounding a park and culminating at the train station. It was designed by Howard Van Doren Shaw in 1916.
In the Lake Forest Historic District, on the National Register #78001161.
Macy's (formerly Dayton's and Marshall Field's) has a fantastic Christmas display on the 8th floor of their downtown Minneapolis store... And it is free of charge, by the way. In 2005, the display was a Cinderella theme. They also have the best gingerbread men that you will ever taste. I should mention that the Minneapolis Dayton's was their first store and to many, Macy's will always be Dayton's.
Macy's. Minneapolis, Minnesota.
