ReplyDeleteWhy no interior pictures to preserve history?
I miss the Bon with is was still around.
ReplyDeleteI love the Bon! When Macy's took over...I felt like crying. My fondest memories of the Bon were at Soutcenter Mall in Tukwila, WA. Now when I walk in there....I feel so empty. But the layout is still the same....so the memories just keep flooding back.
ReplyDeleteIf Macy's had to take over the store..can't they just leave the name? When they change the name, they are essentially wiping out many peoples history and generations of memories.
Couldn't they just call it The Bon Marche (a division of Macys) ???
