Product Details & Size Guide

GhostCorp Apparel - resurrecting iconic corporate ghosts.

Share a little Cincinnati history with the next generation in this McAlpin's Infant Bodysuit. McAlpin's began in 1852 as Ellis, McAlpin & Co. and opened its downtown Fourth Street location in 1880. The company later expanded to Western Hills Shopping Center, while its landmark downtown building went on to become The McAlpin after the store closed. A meaningful choice for families with local roots, former shoppers, and collectors who enjoy passing along stories of Cincinnati places and businesses.

McAlpin's began in Cincinnati in 1852 as Ellis, McAlpin & Co. The department store opened its landmark downtown location on Fourth Street in 1880, taking over a building previously occupied by competitor Shillito's. In 1954, it became the first Cincinnati department store to open a suburban location, at Western Hills Shopping Center. About two decades later, McAlpin's became a division of Mercantile Stores. Mercantile moved its corporate headquarters to Fairfield, Ohio, in 1990. In 1998, Little Rock-based Dillard's bought Mercantile, and McAlpin's stores were converted to the Dillard's name that year, with one exception: the Dayton Mall location was sold to Elder-Beerman. The landmark downtown Cincinnati store had closed in 1996. Its building was later restored and reopened as The McAlpin, a 62-unit luxury condominium building. The company's history traces a path from a Cincinnati-founded retailer to a division of a larger retail group, followed by a change of store names and a new use for its downtown landmark.
