started the current
interest in books on
Department Store
History: Michael Lisicky's 
original book on Hutzler's.



Click in the picture to
read about Hutzler's
in Michael Lisicky's latest
book about Baltimore
Department Stores.

In 1932, Hutzler's opened its Iconic "Greater Hutzler Store"
between its original Palace building and some older
storefronts on Howard Street.

In 1941, Hutzler's added 5 stories, creating the
Hutzler Tower atop its 1932 building. The
Saratoga Street "Annex" can be seen to the
right of the Tower.



The Saratoga Street building was part
of an unrealized plan to build a uniform,
10- story commerical-style structure
for Hutzler's.

Noted Baltimore artist Aaron Sopher was
commissioned by Hutzler's to create
illustrations for the store's 100th anniver-
sary, including this view of the store's
buildings along Howard  Street.
