[quote=Anonymous]In the 80s/90s downtown was still a shopping mecca. The huge Woodies, the Hecht Co, Garfinkel’s, etc. Along Connecticut Ave there was Raleigh’s, a large Gap (across the street from where Shake Shack is today), Burberry’s, Brooks Bros, etc. There was also a popular xxx district along 9th street near Gallery Place. Today, downtown still has a fair amount of retail but mostly on the high end in and around the part of downtown branded as Center City. Downtown’s flagship Macy’s is doing alright, but lacks the charm, panache or massive size of the old venerable Woodies with its restaurant. [/quote]
