Description

Together with the Dodgers and Prospect Park, Abraham & Straus used to be a legendary piece of Brooklyn’s history and identity. From Abraham Abraham’s modest store of 1865, A&S developed into one among The united states’s largest department stores. It in the end turned into a charter member of the powerful Federated Department Stores Corporation in 1929. Known for unparalleled customer and employee loyalty, the stores rode a wave of demographic and economic changes. As of late, the previous Fulton Street Abraham & Straus operates as a Macy’s and remains one among The united states’s last downtown department stores. Writer, historian and lecturer Michael J. Lisicky chronicles the upward push and fall of Brooklyn’s iconic store.
