Add a touch of Tucson retail history to a seasonal display with a Levy's ceramic ornament. Founded by Jacob and Ben Levy in 1950, the department store began downtown and later became part of shopping life at El Con Mall and Foothills Mall. Its successive changes in ownership and name mark a distinctive chapter in Southern Arizona business history. This keepsake is well suited to former shoppers, Arizona locals, and collectors who want to remember the Levy Brothers name and the stores that shaped their mall-era memories.
Levy's, also known as Levy Brothers, was a department store based in Tucson, Arizona. Brothers Jacob and Ben Levy founded it in 1950 after acquiring the former Myers & Bloom department store in downtown Tucson. The brothers had operated department stores in Southern Arizona mining towns, including Douglas and Clifton, where their stores served active communities and carried a full line of clothing. A second Tucson location opened at El Con Mall in 1960. It moved to another building in the mall in 1969; the former building became Steinfeld's. Levy's added a store at Foothills Mall in 1983. Federated Department Stores owned the business and in 1985 absorbed it into its Sanger-Harris subsidiary. Sanger-Harris became Foley's in 1987, and Foley's was sold to May Company in 1988. The El Con location became Robinsons-May on February 2, 1997, then converted to Macy's in 2006. It closed in 2008 and was demolished for a Walmart Supercenter. The Foothills Mall store also became Sanger-Harris and then Foley's, closing in 1994. Its former space was later divided among Ross Dress for Less, Nike Factory Store, and vacant space last occupied by Linens 'N Things.
