This is flash, and one of the city’s tourist attractions. The Philadelphia Macy’s would have to take the cake for the most beautiful department store… It is amazing, so are the prices shoes and clothes a fraction of what we pay back home.  For exaple Levi 501 are under $40, nike from $25 is crazy.   As special guests in New York  they gave us a 10% discount card too- which will make things even cheaper.

The buiding was built for the Wanamaker Department Store and opened in 1911 and boasts being the first department store in the US lit with electricity and the first with a refund policy. Unfortunatley because of renovations you can not see the amazing organ behind the curtain it is the worlds biggest instrument and has 28500 pipes- no joke.   On the bottom photo you can just make out the 2500 lb eagle in the centre- another impressive item- the detail is amazing, it is meant to have over 16000 feathers on its head alone.
