The history of Macy’s in Downtown Sacramento and the city’s redevelopment

Macy’s in Downtown Sacramento is closing soon and Shawn shares the impact Macy’s had in Sacramento. On November 4, 1963, Macy’s department store opened in Downtown Sacramento on the block bounded by K, L, 4th, and 5th Streets. The project began 8 years prior as Macy’s was looking to expand its California division into Sacramento. The three-story department store, with a below ground garage, was part of the large redevelopment project in Sacramento’s West End. Macy’s was a key player in the city’s redevelopment and influenced the location of the Interstate 5 freeway in Sacramento. Macy’s was to be the west anchor of the future K Street Mall, which would span from 3rd to 7th Streets. The 330,000 square feet building for Macy’s was designed by architect John S. Bolles of San Francisco. Construction of the Macy’s began in 1962 by the Dinwidde Construction Company and cost 13 million dollars to complete. With the future closure, we wonder what business will move into the location. #macys #SacHistoryMuseum #museum #sacramento #history #oldsacramento #oldsac #sacramentohistory #downtownsac #youtubehistory
