Forbes & Wallace From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Forbes and Wallace was an American department store chain based in Springfield, Massachusetts. The Forbes and Wallace Store was constructed by partners Alexander B. Forbes and Andrew Brabner Wallace in 1874 at the corner of Main and Vernon Streets, Springfield, Massachusetts. In 1896 Forbes retired and Wallace became sole proprietor. In 1905 the Store consisted of eight floors and had grown into a complex of six buildings, taking up the entire city block. Forbes & Wallace was considered Springfield's leading retail establishment. In 1976 the Store was closed and the buildings remained vacant until demolition in 1982. In 1987 The Monarch Place was constructed on this site. |
