The display cases are small, and there is a walk-in safe. There are ornate bronze gates which separate this room from the main floor. There is a mezzanine on two sides of the room, connected by a bridge. The architecture looks to be from the 1920's. The carpet was newer, so I guess that the room was used in modern times.  Basic Information Type: Building Status: Active Accessibility: Moderate Recommendation: check it out if you're nearby  Physical Information Address Minneapolis, Minnesota United States Owner: Macy's duh  Hazards  Interesting Features  Security Measures Salespeople everywhere.

Store, which is now occupied by Macy's. Minneapolis-based Dayton's was among the nation's leading department stores for nearly a century. Founded in 1902 by George Draper Dayton, Dayton stores quickly became synonymous with quality merchandise, superior service, fashion leadership, and community involvement. In 1969, the Detroit-based J.L. Hudson Company merged with the Dayton Corporation to form the Dayton-Hudson Corporation, adding 21 Michigan-based stores to the total. In 1990, the department store division of Dayton-Hudson (now Target Corporation) acquired Chicago-based Marshall Field's. Both Dayton's and Hudson's retained their individual store names until 2001 when they were united under the Marshall Field's namplate. Prior to changing its name to Marshall Field's, Dayton's stores numbered 19, serving communities throughout the upper Midwest. Dayton's was the parent of Target, opening the first Target in 1962 as the discount store version of Dayton's. Target quickly grew to become the majority of the company's business. In 2000, Dayton-Hudson was renamed Target Corporation. In 2004, Target finally divested their department store division to focus on discount retailing. May Company purchased the stores prior to its own acquisition by Federated Department Stores, which rebranded all the Marshall Field's stores as Macy's. Many Minnesotans have resisted the double name change, and continue to refer to "Dayton's" when speaking of the old stores in Rosedale Center and Downtown Minneapolis and St. Paul.
