nAnyone who has waited in a Christmas line for the Walnut Rooms Great Tree can attest that Chicagos loyalty to Marshall Fields is fierce. Dayton-Hudson even had to take out advertising around town to apologize for changing the Fields hallowed green bags. And with good reason, the store and those who ran it shaped the citys streets, subsidized its culture and heralded its progress. The resulting commercial empire dictated wholesale trade terms in Calcutta and sponsored towns in North Carolina, but its essence was always Chicago. So when the Marshall Field name was retired in 2006 after the stores were purchased by Macys, protest slogans like Fields is Chicago? and Fields: as Chicago as it gets? werent just emotional hype. Many still hope that name will be resurrected like the city it helped support during the Great Fire and the Great Depression. Until then, fans of Marshall Fields can celebrate its history with this warm look back at the beloved institution.
