Plans for an immediate start on construction of a North Side store for Famous-Barr Co. were announced yesterday by Morton D. May, president of May Department Stores Co. and general manager of Famous-Barr. It is the first unit to be built in the Northland Shopping Center, a $12,000,000 project planned for a 62-acre tract at Lucas and Hunt road and West Florissant avenue, Jennings, with parking space for 5000 automobiles. Opening of the Famous-Barr store is scheduled for the early autumn of 1955, May said.
Executives of St. Louis department stores and public officials toured the eight acres of Famous-Barr Co.'s new Northland branch store last night in a preview showing of the modern structure at Lucas-Hunt road and West Florissant avenue, Jennings. The store, its three upper levels faced with red brick, is the center of a $12,000,000 shopping center, which will serve the rapidly-growing population of north St. Louis county. Shelves and display cases on all floors, including the basement of the store, were filled with merchandise in readiness for the store's opening at noon tomorrow.
