Facade of the Filene's Department Store. Only the facade remains. Behind this wall is a huge hole. In 2007-2008, the building was demolished to make way for a office and condominium complex. Then the stock market crashed and the developer could no longer afford to continue the project.Wednesday, May 12, 2010

All show and no substance. It's a wonderful shot, I like such decorations.
Only the facade hey .. plenty of scope for financial analogies.
Beautiful details, but the sad story of the building.
Was there many times. A true landmark.
we have an idea and proposal for the filenes site www.blinkproject.com
That seems so odd to have gutted the building and left the face. The clock seems like an appropriate detail. Distressing facts, great photo.
