Read's Department Stores
text:
Read's Department Stores was a Bridgeport, Connecticut-based retail chain founded in 1857 by D. M. Read. Known for its classy, upscale merchandise, the flagship store was once hailed as New England's largest department store. It expanded to several other locations in the 1950s and 1960s, but these closed progressively through the 1980s and 1990s. The original Bridgeport store closed in 1981 when Read's moved to a new location, and was later extensively renovated and reopened as Artspace Read's,
