In 1907 Herbert Marcus, Sr., his sister Carrie Marcus Neiman, and her husband A. L. Neiman founded the prestigious Neiman-Marcus retail establishment. After the firm's first store at Elm and Murphy streets burned in 1913, a new store was constructed at this site. Many of the retail innovations instituted here had a dramatic effect on stores and manufacturers throughout the country. Under the direction of Herbert Marcus, Sr., the store also became a leader in support of philanthropic projects, civic activities, and Dallas' early commercial development.
