Set your phone beside a story from West Michigan's retail past with this Steketee's display stand. What began as an 1862 dry goods business became a prominent Grand Rapids department store, with an eight-story Monroe Avenue flagship opening in 1915. Steketee's later expanded to communities across southwestern Michigan before its final store closed in 2003. This piece brings a memorable local name into everyday routines and invites conversation about changing shopping habits and treasured hometown landmarks.
Steketee's was a Grand Rapids, Michigan, department store whose roots date to 1862, when Paul Steketee and John H. Doornich started a dry goods business. After a fire devastated the operation, Doornich sold his interest to Steketee, whose family helped rebuild it. As Grand Rapids grew, the family developed an eight-story flagship on Monroe Avenue, which opened in 1915. The company expanded beyond downtown in the 1950s, opening its first satellite store in 1958 and later operating several stores across southwestern Michigan. In 1991, the Fort Worth department store company Dunlaps bought out the Steketee family and brought the stores into its group of brands. Changing retail patterns and competition from national brands affected the business. The downtown Grand Rapids store closed in 1998. The Maple Hill Mall store in Kalamazoo closed in 2003, the same year Dunlaps shut the last Steketee's store, at Westshore Mall. The former downtown Grand Haven store building was later adapted for use as the Tri-Cities Historical Museum.
