Originally Robinson's Department Store, which started off life as the Boston Dry Goods Store in 1881 (Boston was a popular name for dry goods stores). It moved from Broadway to this location on 7th Street and Grand in 1914 and designed by Noonan and Richards. It was modernized in 1934 by Edward L. Mayberry. Robinson's was acquired by May Department Stores in 1986 and it merged with the May Company in 1993. This store was closed in the early 1990s when Robinson's-MAY was created and moved into the May Company store at Citicorp Plaza.
Robinsons-May was bought out by Macy's and this nameplate was retired.

The building now hosts a large number of telecommunications equipment.
