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.
Filene's closed in 2007 and the building has been torn down. This mural advertising the Bargain Basement is all that remains on a wall in the Downtown Crossing T-Stop.
