Filene's Department Store

Filene's Department Store is a former department store building in the Downtown Crossing shopping district of Boston, Massachusetts. Daniel Burnham designed it for Abraham Lincoln Filene and Edward Filene, and it opened in 1912 as the flagship store of the Filene's chain. Federated Department Stores acquired the chain in 2005, and the store closed in 2006 in favor of the adjacent Macy's store. The building has since been incorporated into the base of the Millennium Tower residential skyscraper. The original space was renovated into offices for Arnold Worldwide and Havas and into retail space for Primark and Roche Bros, so the structure still serves commercial uses.
