The Hecht Co., Washington D.C.

The Hecht Co.'s terra-cotta faced F Street store at the
corner of 7th Street NW in the Nation's capitol.

The new building of The Hecht Co. opened to
great fanfare on November 12, 1925

In 1941, the store was expanded to E Street by a
modernistic addition.

The various buildings of The Hecht Co. began
to fill an entire block and were advertised as the
"Greater Hecht Co. Store."

A 1957 view from 6th and F Streets, NW, shows
