PARMA, Ohio — A piece of the former Macy’s department store at Parmatown Mall can be yours.
The mall, now called Shoppes at Parma, is donating 100 bricks from the demolished building to raise money for local kids.
“They’re more than just bricks; they’re really a historic piece of Parma history,” said Michelle Devlin, with Shoppes at Parma.
The bricks are available to the public at a cost of $20 each, and they’re inscribed with the dates the department store was in operation.
“We had multiple requests from people in the community asking if they could have a piece of that building, whether because their mother worked there or they shopped there as a child,” Devlin said.
The money will benefit the Parma Youth Commission, a newly-formed group for Parma high schoolers to become involved in local government and the community.
