New York City is a challenge. Like the other four largest US cities through most of the 20th century (Los Angeles, Chicago, and Philadelphia) there were no city directories published after the ate 1930s or early 1940s. This makes a complete list of store locations over time just about impossible to create, so this section will have only partial lists and some photos.
