The Grand Court

This is the Grand Court at Macy's Philadelphia. The store is housed in the lower three floors of the great Wanamaker building. During the holidays, the store literally lays out the red carpet for shoppers. This allows visitors to sit on the floor to watch the light show. This indoor space is one of my favorite downtown stops at any time of the year. There are daily organ recitals all year long. Years ago there used to be benches near the famous bronze eagle that you could use to take a break, but they were removed. Nevertheless, its still a great place to meet in downtown Philadelphia.
