Missoula Mercantile -114 N. Higgins
The Missoula Mercantile was established in 1866 and eventually became one of the largest mercantile enterprises between the Twin Cities and Seattle. Many of Missoula’s most prominent business and civic leaders began their careers at “ The Merc.” Now home to the Missoula Macy’s, the building was constructed in stages between 1882 and 1891. It utilizes a vernacular commercial style and some elaborate ornamentation, including an 1890s cast iron storefront facing Higgins Ave. – Missoula Downtown Association – (CLICK FOR PDF of WALKING TOUR & MAP)
