Macy's Pasadena 2009 SADI Winner


It would have been easy to cut corners to just open a new store in the same market. Instead, Macy’s took the time and effort to renovate a historically significant property. For that, the SADI judges named the project a winner in our new department store category. The site opened as a Bullock’s in 1947 and has gone through several iterations. The new design helps maintain the store as an important building and preserves it for future generations. Judges lauded the blending of new displays and technology into the historic interior. One judge wrote, “it demonstrates that department stores are able to locally adapt and maintain their brand” and another said it “personifies the graciousness of a classic department store and marries it with fresh merchandising.”
