Marshall Field III bought the property in 1921 and had an estate house built in 1925, one of the largest estates of the Gold Coast mansions.Field named the property "Caumsett", after the Matinecock tribe's original name for the peninsula meaning "place by a sharp rock"
Built in 1907 as a retail building in downtown Chicago -- a purpose it still serves, as there's a Macy's in it now. Probably very few of the modern day shoppers even notice this very fancy arched ceiling, with its glass mosaic, located maybe 40 feet up from floor level in the cosmetics department.
Except for adding red stars and "Macy's" banners to the trumpets, the Evil Empire has kept Marshall Field's Christmas decor pretty much intact.
And there's still the Walnut Room, where it is still possible to waste away to a skeleton waiting in line for a table.
Macy's in the old Marshall Fields building. I would have loved to have seen this place in the 1930s and 1940s. Great historical photos inside too.

A wall plaque commemorates the 1989 completion of this portion of the Pedway, at State and Randolph, adjacent to the Marshall Field and Company building (now Macy's). This plaque and signage is located on the south wall of the Pedway, where it turns to the west.
This photo is part of a numbered series of photos inside the Pedway that I took in April 2022. The Pedway is a network of underground pedestrian tunnels, passageways and connections in downtown Chicago.

Macy's on State Street moved into the old Marshall Field. To some Chicagoans it will always be called Marshall Field. There is a plaque on the corner that is engraved Marshall Field and Company.
Clothes make the man.
Al Capone bought many expensive items from Marshall Field's, the classic 1892 13-story department store in downtown Chicago, after his men convinced him that his turned-down brown hat just didn't fit the image of a powerful mob leader. It was here he once bought his trademark velvet-collared coat for $200 and pearl gray hat.
Capone's spending habits came up at his tax evasion trial in 1931. In an effort to tie Capone's costly clothing tastes with his massive hidden income, prosecutors cross examined a salesman about the silk underwear he had bought in 1928, for which he paid $48.
Capone was found guilty and sentenced to 11 years.
