Hahne & Company (pronounced Hayne) commonly known as Hahne's, was an upscale department store chain based in Newark, New Jersey. The chain had stores located throughout the central and northern areas of New Jersey. == History == The firm was founded by Julius Hahne in 1858 as a specialty store which by the early 20th century had grown into a full-line department store. The store's motto was "The Store With The Friendly Spirit", and it became known as the "carriage trade" store in Newark, NJ. In 1911, a modern flagship store designed by architect Goldwin Starrett was opened at 609 Broad Street in downtown Newark.〔(registerofhistoricplaces.com/NJ/Essex/vacant.html National Register of Historic Places, Building #94001005 ), accessed 17 January 2008〕〔(The Newark Landmarks & Preservation Committee ), accessed January 17, 2008〕 Occupying a site, this single building contained of selling space spread over five floors (basement through 4th floor), with an atrium in the center of the building which ran from the street floor to the 4th floor. An extensive Budget Store operated in the basement level until it was folded in the mid 1970s. The store also contained two popular dining rooms, the more formal "Pine Room" located on the street floor, and the counter-style "Maple Room" (located in the basement), which was very popular with downtown office workers. The "Maple Room" closed in the early 1980s when the basement level was closed as a selling floor, while the "Pine Room" remained open until the entire store was closed in 1987. In 1916, Hahne's became one of the founding members of the Associated Dry Goods Corporation (ADG). In 1929, Hahne's was the first of Newark's department stores to open a branch on Church Street in Montclair, NJ. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Hahne and Company」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
